As artificial intelligence becomes an essential part of our daily lives, the need for faster and more energy-efficient hardware continues to grow. In our latest research, conducted as part of the now-completed ORCA-LAB project, we explored how photonics—using light instead of electricity—can address these challenges.… Read More »𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘀 on Arxiv 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗢𝗥𝗖𝗔-𝗟𝗔𝗕 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁

Our colleague, Mladen Banovic, recently published a paper that delves into the performance enhancement of photonic reservoir computing. In this research, Mladen explores the reconfigurability of an all-optical nonlinear node based on a Fabry-Pérot laser diode. By benchmarking a variety of tasks with different computational… Read More »ORCA Lab paper in IEEE Explore

We’re pleased to share our latest findings: a theoretical investigation into the application of a bistable Fabry–Perot semiconductor laser under optical injection as an all-optical activation unit for multilayer perceptron optical neural networks. In this study, we’ve examined the device’s ability to provide reconfigurable sigmoid-like… Read More »ORCA-lab’s new paper

It is our distinct pleasure to introduce the inaugural milestone of our project: a comprehensive presentation featuring both detailed theoretical exploration and meticulous experimental investigation. Our focus lies on the realm of optical bistability and tristability within dual injection-locked Fabry–Perot laser diodes. Our proposed device… Read More »ORCA-lab first lab milestone
