On-Chip Photonic Synapses Based on Slot-Ridge Waveguides With PCMs For In-Memory Computing

Because of the von Neumann bottleneck, neuromorphic networks aimed at in-memory computing, such as brains, are extensively studied. As artificial synapses are essential in neuromorphic networks, a photonic synapse based on slot-ridge waveguides with nonvolatile phase-change materials (PCMs) was prop...
