Integrated photonic fractional convolution accelerator

引用

Photonics Research 2024年第8期12卷 1828-1839页

作者： KEVIN ZELAYA MOHAMMED-ali MIRI Department of Physics Queens College of the City University of New YorkQueensNew York 11367USA Physics Program The Graduate Center of the City University of New YorkNew YorkNew York 10016USA

An integrated photonic circuit architecture to perform a modified-convolution operation based on the discrete fractional Fourier transform(DFrFT) is introduced. This is accomplished by utilizing two nonuniformly coupled waveguide lattices with equally spaced eigenmode spectra, the lengths of which are chosen so that the DFrFT and its inverse operations are achieved. A programmable modulator array is interlaced so that the required fractional convolution operation is performed. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the proposed architecture can effectively perform smoothing and edge detection tasks even for noisy input signals, which is further verified by electromagnetic wave simulations. Notably, mild lattice defects do not jeopardize the architecture performance, showing its resilience to manufacturing errors.
