Neuromorphic Photonics
Presentation 1: Introduction to spiking and excitability.
Presentation 2: Semiconductor Photonic devices as
computing circuits.
Reasons are:
more convenient:
(1) Moore’s law is being stifled by physical limits of CMOS
architecture.
(2) Large-scale integration techniques in photonics are
just emerging.
(3) Possibility of hybrid analog-digital processing
presented by neuromorphic computing.
