The Maxwell's equations are solved using the finite difference method to obtain the field distribution of the electromagnetic components on the cross-section of the waveguide, determining the dimensions of the SiN waveguide and taper for single-mode transmission. Additionally, a taper structure gradually narrowing from the input end to the output end is employed to connect the waveguide above the active layer.

Adversarial attacks have been widely confirmed to be a serious threat to deep learning. This has led to a large amount of studies in this direction of the electronic domain, including input attacks and inject faults for weights. In this paper, focusing on the phases in the linear operation unit of PNNs, a phase gradient attack (PGA) scheme based on the phase gradient sorting of the MZI-arrays and injecting disturbances along the gradient direction is proposed for the first time. The simulation results indicate that even with weak-intensity PGA, it is almost impossible for PNNs to perform the classification inference. Furthermore, taking into account the effects of fabrication-process variations (FPV) and thermal crosstalk in MZI-arrays that lead to tuning phase deviation in practical application, we systematically analyzed the validity of proposed scheme on the PNNs with phase uncertainties. Specifically, we tested the impact of injecting faults by compressing the number of attacked phase angles to 3, 5, and 7, respectively. The experiment results show that injection attack based using PGA on PNNs trained with Gaussian datasets would reduce classification accuracy to 27.97%, 15.47%, and 8.91% for corresponding cases.","PeriodicalId":13094,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics","volume":"31 3: AI/ML Integrated Opto-electronics","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142672005","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An epitaxial regrowth method is developed to fabricate the dot-in-well (DWELL) PCSELs. The epitaxial regrowth starts with the growth of a partial laser structure containing bottom cladding, waveguide, active region, and the photonic crystal (PC) layer. The PC layer is patterned to realize the cavity. Subsequently a top cladding layer is regrown to complete the laser structure. During the regrowth of the top cladding layer, the partial laser structure is subjected to high growth temperatures in excess of 600 °C resulting in an unintentional annealing of the active region. This annealing of the active region can alter the QDs by changing their size resulting in a blue shift in photoluminescence (PL) and narrowing PL emission. This effect results in the misaligning of the gain peak and the cavity resonance, resulting in sub-optimal lasing performance. DWELL active regions are known to have better thermal stability compared to both QDs and QWs and could be an ideal candidate for regrown PCSELs. We successfully demonstrate an optically-pumped epitaxially-regrown DWELL PCSEL with an emission wavelength of 1230 nm operating at room temperature. Furthermore, the DWELL active region shows excellent emission wavelength stability and intensity despite the high temperature regrowth process.","PeriodicalId":13094,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics","volume":"31 2: Pwr. and Effic.

Device research and engineering efforts have ensured that BALs remain the most efficient of all light sources, so that in the past 10 years, power conversion efficiency at 20 W continuous wave (CW) output power from BA lasers with a 90…100 μm wide stripe has increased 1.5-fold to 57% (via epitaxial layer design developments), whilst peak CW power per single emitter has increased around 3-fold to 70 W (via scaling of device size), with further scaling underway, for example via use of multi-junction designs. However, the peak achievable CW power conversion efficiency and CW specific output power (defined here as peak output power from a 100 μm stripe diode lasers with a single p-n junction) has changed remarkably little, remaining around 70% and 25 W, respectively, for the past decade. Fortunately, research to understand the limits to peak efficiency and specific output power has also shown progress. Specifically, recent studies indicate that spatial non-uniformity in optical field and temperature play a major role in limiting both power and conversion efficiency. Technological efforts motivated by these discoveries to flatten lateral and longitudinal temperature profiles have successfully increased both power and efficiency. In addition, epitaxial layer designs with very high modal gain successfully reduce threshold current and increase slope at 25 °C to values comparable to those observed at 200 K, offering a path toward the 80% conversion efficiency range currently seen only at these cryogenic temperatures. Overall, whilst operating efficiency and power continue to scale rapidly, a technological path for increased specific power and peak efficiency is also emerging.","PeriodicalId":13094,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics","volume":"31 2: Pwr. and Effic.
