Erfan Khoram, Ang Chen, Dianjing Liu, Qiqi Wang, Ming Yuan, Zongfu Yu · Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics · 2019
We show optical waves passing through a nanophotonic medium can perform artificial neural computing. Such a medium exploits linear and nonlinear scatterers to realize complex input-output mapping far beyond the capabilities of traditional nanophotonic devices.
