    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure describe techniques and configurations for a nonlinear optical device used to construct an optical neural network (ONN) with an arbitrary number of layers of matrix multipliers. The nonlinear optical device includes a waveguide to receive optical input and a gain medium coupled with the waveguide, to amplify or attenuate the received optical input, to provide an output that is amplified in a nonlinear manner in response to the optical input reaching saturation, where the nonlinearly amplified output is to provide a nonlinear activation function for an ONN. Additional embodiments may be described and claimed.

    Abstract: Embodiments described herein may be related to apparatuses, processes, and techniques directed to phase match and impedance match to enable a higher baud rate for ultra-high-speed TW-MZM for 100 Gbaud or above for PAM applications, and/or 120 Gbaud or above for QAM applications. Embodiments described herein may include ultra-high-speed TW-MZM based on differential signal-to-signal (SS) TW using a push-pull PN structure. These embodiments facilitate high speeds for a TW-MZM due to decreased complexity by eliminating a ground in the TW. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: Embodiments described herein may be related to apparatuses, processes, and techniques directed to a multiple traveling waveguide structure to synthesize EO frequency responses used for optical modulation. Multiple traveling waveguide devices may include a plurality of traveling waveguides, each with different characteristics resulting in a different EO response within a target frequency range. These different characteristics may be achieved by varying the PN junction, PN doping level, optical waveguides, RF waveguides and the like for each traveling waveguide. The multiple traveling waveguide structure is formed by combining each traveling waveguide in a serial and/or parallel fashion, and then iteratively optimized based on artificial intelligence (AI) training sequences, to achieve an overall optical modulation beyond 100 GHz. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed toward techniques and configurations for an optical accelerator including a photonics integrated circuit (PIC) for an optical neural network (ONN). In embodiments, an optical accelerator package includes the PIC and an electronics integrated circuit (EIC) that is heterogeneously integrated into the optical accelerator package to proximally provide pre- and post-processing of optical signal inputs and optical signal outputs provided to and received from an optical matrix multiplier of the PIC. In some embodiments, the EIC is a single EIC or discrete EICs to provide pre- and post-processing of the optical signal inputs and optical signal outputs including optical to electrical and electrical to optical transduction. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
