Hybrid memristor optoelectronic integrated circuits for optical computing

We present a novel technology wherein memristors are heterogeneously integrated with optoelectronic devices on a silicon photonic platform. We present results on memristor integrated microring modulators and lasers with non-volatile memory. Furthermore, multiple devices are combined with optical waveguides to create photonic integrated circuits with neuromorphic computing. By pairing non-volatile memory devices directly with silicon photonics, we can integrate memory, computing, and high-speed optical interconnects all together on the same chip.
