摘要
We consider theoretically a network of evanescently coupled optical microcavities to implement a space-multiplexed optical neural network in an integrated nanophotonic circuit. Nonlinear photonic network integrations based on evanescent coupling ensure a highly dense integration, reducing the chip footprint by several orders of magnitude compared to commonly used designs based on long waveguide connections while allowing the processing of optical signals with bandwidth in a practical range. Different nonlinear effects inherent to such microcavities are studied for realizing an all-optical autonomous computing substrate based on the reservoir computing concept, and their contribution to computing performance is demonstrated. We provide an in-depth analysis of the impact of basic microcavity parameters on the computational metrics of the system, namely, the dimensionality and the consistency. Importantly, we find that differences between frequencies and bandwidths of supermodes formed by the evanescent coupling are the determining factor of the reservoir's dimensionality and scalability. The network's dimensionality can be improved with frequency-shifting nonlinear effects such as the Kerr effect, while two-photon absorption has the opposite effect. Finally, we demonstrate in simulation that the proposed reservoir is capable of solving the Mackey-Glass prediction and the optical signal recovery tasks at gigahertz timescale.
