High Contrast and High Efficiency Optical Weighting for Integrated Photonic Computing
Herein, a combined pulse optical weighting scheme is proposed for photonic synapses. Employing a 4 μm$\umu{\rm m}$ long non‐volatile phase‐change material covered on a straight waveguide, a transmission contrast of 31.2 dB is achieved. By exploiting the non‐Arrhenius behavior of the material, the crystallization energy is reduced to 107 pJ, with ...
