A Lithium Niobate on Insulator Based Photonic Neural Network
Lorenzo De Marinis, G. Contestabile, Nicola Andriolli · 2022 27th OptoElectronics and Communications Conference (OECC) and 2022 International Conference on Photonics in Switching and Computing (PSC) · 2022
We propose and simulate a photonic neuromorphic engine that exploits the Lithium-Niobate-on-Insulator (LNOI) integration platform. The resulting reduced-precision vector-matrix multiplier can trade off speed with resolution at a reduced power consumption enabled by LNOI platform.
