Research Bits: Dec. 11


Photonic AI processor Researchers from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Enosemi, and Periplous developed a fully integrated photonic processor that can perform all the key computations of a deep neural network optically on the chip. The chip is fabricated using commercial foundry processes and uses three layers of devices that perform linear and nonlinear operations. A particula... » read more

2D materials–based homogeneous transistor-memory architecture for neuromorphic hardware


Abstract "In neuromorphic hardware, peripheral circuits and memories based on heterogeneous devices are generally physically separated. Thus exploring homogeneous devices for these components is an important issue for improving module integration and resistance matching. Inspired by ferroelectric proximity effect on two-dimensional materials, we present a tungsten diselenide-on-LiNbO3 cascaded... » read more
