[J1] Photonic Integration Circuits I

[J1-1] Silicon Photonics Integration Technologies for Future Computing Systems

Invited

Stefan Abel, Folkert Horst, Pascal Stark, Roger Dangel, Felix Eltes, Yannick Baumgartner, Jean Fompeyrine, 〇Bert Jan Offrein (IBM Research – Zurich, Switzerland)

Keywords:Si photonic and heterogeneous platform, Novel Materials and Structures, Novel phenomena for switching and routing, Neuromorphic computing

Integrated photonics technology offers great potential for applications in neuromorphic systems. We discuss two examples; integrated photonic non-volatile optical weights and a photonic non-volatile memory based analog accelerator for the inference and training of deep neural networks.
