Zusammenfassung

The goal of this project is to develop a new nanophotonics based platform for neuro-inspired information processing. Dense arrays of semiconductor microlasers and single photon sources with quantum dots in the active layer will take a role comparable to neurons in the brain. Neuron-connectivity is being established via diffractive coupling by an external spatial light modulator. Similar to the brain's primary sensory cortex, computation is provided by induced macroscopic network-dynamics, which allows for efficient information processing with diverse applications such as pattern classi...
