We review the latest developments in Fiber-optic Telecommunications and networks presented at OFC 2022 and compare the progress accomplished since the previous year conference, OFC 2021. In particular, we note this year's emphasis on the application of neuralnetworks (NN) as part of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), as well as continued research in quantum communications and key distribution. We also expect future conferences to include papers about optical variants of quantum computers, a field of great interest that can exploit many quantum systems, as well as papers on continuing developments in High-Speed Communications beyond 800 Gb/s, and increased use of coherent modulation and detection in Data Centers Interconnect, Cloud and Edge computing, the latter in support of 5 G Internet Of Things (IOT).

In the post Moore's era, conventional electronic digital computing platforms have encountered escalating challenges to support massively parallel and energy-hungry artificial intelligence (AI) workloads. Intelligent applications in data centers, edge devices, and autonomous vehicles have restricted requirements in throughput, power, and latency, which raises a high demand for a revolutionary neurocomputing solution. opticalneural network (ONN) is a promising hardware platform that could represent a paradigm shift in efficient neurocomputing with its ultra-fast speed, high parallelism, and low energy consumption. In recent years, efforts have been made to facilitate the ONN design stack and push forward the practical application of opticalneural accelerators. In this tutorial, we give an overview of state-of-the-art cross-layer co-design methodologies for scalable, robust, and self-learnable ONN designs across the circuit, architecture, and algorithm levels. Besides, we analyze challenges and highlight emerging directions targeting next-generation optics for AI.

This paper introduces a novel back propagation (BP) neural network method to accurately characterize optical properties of liquid cloud droplets, including black carbon. The model establishes relationships between black carbon volume fraction, wavelength, cloud effective radius, and optical properties. Evaluated on a test set, the value of the root mean square error (RMSE) of the asymmetry factor, extinction coefficient, single-scattering albedo, and the first 4 moments of the Legendre expansion of the phase function are less than 0.003, with the maximum mean relative error (MRE) reaching 0.2%, which are all better than the traditional method that only uses polynomials to fit the relationship between the effective radius and optical properties. Notably, the BP neural network significantly compresses the optical property database size by 37,800 times. Radiative transfer simulations indicate that mixing black carbon particles in water clouds reduces the top-of-atmosphere (TOA) reflectance and heats the atmosphere. However, if the volume fraction of black carbon is less than 10-6, the black carbon mixed in the water cloud has a tiny effect on the simulated TOA reflectance.

opticalneuralnetworks have emerged as a promising avenue for implementing artificial intelligence applications, with matrix computations being a crucial component. However, the existing implementations based on microring resonators (MRRs) face bottlenecks in integration, power efficiency, and scalability, hindering the practical applications of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM)-based matrix -vector multiplications at the hardware level. Here we present a photonic crystal nanobeam cavity (PCNC) matrix core. Remarkably compact with dimensions reduced to 20 mu m x 0.5 mu m, the PCNC unit exhibits a thermal tuning efficiency more than three times that of MRRs. Crucially, it is immune to the free spectral range constraint, thus able to harness the wealth of independent wavelength channels provided by WDM. A 3 x 3 PCNC core chip is demonstrated for animal face recognition and a six -channel chip is employed for handwritten digit classification to demonstrate the scalability. The PCNC solution holds immense promise, offering a versatile platform for next -generation photonic artificial intelligence chips.

optical acceleration of neuromorphic computing has emerged as a platform for achieving low-latency and energy-efficient computation. Due to the rich dynamics, the integrated photonics architecture provides a promising way for implementations of nonlinear computing. In this article, we demonstrate pattern classification of 2 benchmark datasets, the Iris dataset and the Wisconsin Breast Cancer (WBC) dataset, based on the nonlinear neuron-like dynamics of an integrated Fabry-Perot laser chip with a saturable absorption region (FP-SA). The effectiveness and robustness of the algorithm are firstly verified by numerical simulations. With the help of an optimized delay learning method, efficient learning can be achieved based on a single neuron, achieving 96% and 92% in classification accuracy of Iris and WBC dataset respectively. Then, the hardware-algorithm collaborative computing is demonstrated based on a single FP-SA laser chip. The classification accuracy of Iris and WBC dataset could reach 94.67% and 88%, respectively, having a relative low loss compared to the simulation results. This work provides an efficient solution for classification tasks based on optical SNN.

Recent advancements in optical communications have explored the use of spatially structured beams, especially orbital angular momentum (OAM) beams, to achieve high-capacity data transmission. Traditional electronic convolutional neuralnetworks (CNNs), while effective, face significant challenges in demultiplexing OAM beams efficiently, notably their high power consumption and substantial computational time, which can limit real-time processing capabilities in high-speed optical communication systems. In this study, we propose a hybrid optical-electronic CNN that integrates Fourier optics convolution for intensity recognition-based demultiplexing of multiplexed OAM beams under simulated atmospheric turbulence. Experimental results showed that the proposed hybrid neural network system achieves a 69% demultiplexing accuracy under strong turbulence conditions while exhibiting a three times reduction in training time compared to all-electronic CNNs. This study underscores the potential of a hybrid optical-electronic neural network to enhance both performance and efficiency in OAM-based optical communication systems.

Diffractive neuralnetworks (DNNs) are emerging as a novel opticalcomputing architecture that combines wave optics with deep-learning methods for high-speed parallel information processing. Herein, we report a reflection type, multi-functional, broadband DNN design. It consists of two phase-modulation layers based on a single spatial light modulator and a mirror facing it. The power efficiency of this design is more than 16 times higher than that of the cascaded structure utilizing beam splitters. It can function either as a two-layer DNN or a one-layer DNN with the other serving as an information input layer. Single- and dual-wavelength filtering and focusing, as well as spatial wavelength demultiplexing of supercontinuum, are experimentally demonstrated using the two-layer DNN, whereas the one-layer DNN is experimentally demonstrated by the classification of hand-written digits, which are input by the first layer via holographic imaging. The designed DNN could operate independently or be readily integrated with other optical systems and may find applications in spectroscopy, microscopy, and information technology. (c) 2025 Author(s).
