Spiking Photonic Neurons Based on Two-Section InP Quantum-Well Lasers Integrated on Silicon
Menelaos Skontranis, Benoit Charbonnier, Olivier Girard +2
The paper experimentally demonstrates that two-section InP quantum-well lasers integrated on silicon can exhibit neuronal-like spiking behaviors such as integrate-and-fire and reso…
Per-Span Microwave Frequency Fiber Interferometry in Subsea Cables for Scalable Deep-Ocean Geophysical Monitoring
Georgios Aias Karydis, Nicolas L. Celli, David Craig +6
We demonstrate low-cost microwave frequency fibre interferometry for per-span monitoring of a 1,770 km operational subsea cable connecting Ireland and Iceland. Over four months, th…
VCSEL-based PAM-4 transmission system emulator: A data-driven deep learning perspective
Stavros Deligiannidis, Nikos Argyris, Stefanos Dris +4
We demonstrate a data-driven framework for emulating high-speed VCSEL-based 4-level Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM-4) optical interconnects using bidirectional Long Short-Term Mem…
Quantum-Secure Physical Unclonable Function enabled by Silicon Photonics Integrated Circuits
G. Sarantoglou, N. Tzekas, G. Moustakas +8
Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) are hardware security primitives whose inherent physical complexity can be exploited for secure authentication and cryptographic key generation…
Experimental Analysis of a Self-Coherent M-QAM Receiver by Means of Recurrent Optical Spectrum Slicing and Direct Detection
Kostas Sozos, Francesco Da Ros, Senior Member Optica +6
High order modulation formats constitute the most prominent way for increasing spectral efficiency in transmission systems. Coherent transceivers that support such higher order for…
High-Speed Non-Volatile Barium Titanate Field Programmable Photonic Gate Array
Cristina Catalá-Lahoz, Jose Roberto Rausell-Campo, Daniel Pérez-López +10
Programmable integrated photonics aims to replicate the versatility of field-programmable gate arrays in the optical domain. However, scaling these systems has been prevented by th…
