Research Bits: June 14
By Jesse Allen - 14 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

Photonic deep neural network chip Engineers from the University of Pennsylvania built a photonic deep neural network on a 9.3 square millimeter chip they say is faster and more efficient at classifying images, with the ability to process nearly two billion images a second. The chip uses a series of waveguides that form 'neutron layers' mimicking the brain. “Our chip processes information ... » read more

Machine Learning-Based Optimization Of Chiral Photonic Nanostructures: Evolution- And Neural Network-Based Design
By Fraunhofer IIS/EAS - 08 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

Chiral photonics opens new pathways to manipulate light-matter interactions and tailor the optical response of metasurfaces and -materials by nanostructuring nontrivial patterns. Chirality of matter, such as that of molecules, and light, which in the simplest case is given by the handedness of circular polarization, have attracted much attention for applications in chemistry, nanophotonics and ... » read more

Neuromorphic photonic circuit modeling in Verilog-A
By Technical Paper Link - 19 Apr, 2022 - Comments: 0

Abstract "One of the significant challenges in neuromorphic photonic architectures is the lack of good tools to simulate large-scale photonic integrated circuits. It is crucial to perform simulations on a single platform to capture the circuit’s behavior in the presence of both optical and electrical components. Here, we adopted a Verilog-A based approach to model neuromorphic photonic cir... » read more

Experimental photonic quantum memristor
By Technical Paper Link - 27 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

Abstract "Memristive devices are a class of physical systems with history-dependent dynamics characterized by signature hysteresis loops in their input–output relations. In the past few decades, memristive devices have attracted enormous interest in electronics. This is because memristive dynamics is very pervasive in nanoscale devices, and has potentially groundbreaking applications ranging... » read more

Large-area photonic lift-off process for flexible thin-film transistors
By Technical Paper Link - 15 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

Abstract "Fabricating flexible electronics on plastic is often limited by the poor dimensional stability of polymer substrates. To mitigate, glass carriers are used during fabrication, but removing the plastic substrate from a carrier without damaging the electronics remains challenging. Here we utilize a large-area, high-throughput photonic lift-off (PLO) process to rapidly separate polymer f... » read more
