In this paper, we experimentally and theoretically investigate the stability and uniformity of multi-wavelength Brillouin-erbium fiber laser based on four-wave mixing (FWM). Multi-wavelength generation is limited by cross-gain saturation between different wavelengths from homogeneous broadening of erbium-doped fiber. Modeling coupled-mode equation for FWM and analyzing the influence of FWM on multi-wavelength generation. 16 orders Brillouin Stokes (BS) waves with a wavelength spacing of 0.084 nm are obtained experimentally within a 3 dB bandwidth by the FWM effect in a 100 m highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF), power distribution of each laser is uniform and peak power fluctuation is less than 1.184 dB within a 10 dB bandwidth, the outputs exhibit good time stability and uniformity. Compared with the same configuration, the laser without HNLF has only 9 orders stable BS waves within 3 dB bandwidth, and high-order Stokes wave shows significant waveform jitter and power fluctuation.
The accumulation and extrusion of Ca 2+ in the pre- and postsynaptic compartments play a critical role in initiating plastic changes in biological synapses. In order to emulate this fundamental process in electronic devices, we developed diffusive Ag-in-oxide memristors with a temporal response during and after stimulation similar to that of the synaptic Ca 2+ dynamics. In situ high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and nanoparticle dynamics simulations both demonstrate that Ag atoms disperse under electrical bias and regroup spontaneously under zero bias because of interfacial energy minimization, closely resembling synaptic influx and extrusion of Ca 2+ , respectively. Furthermore, the diffusive memristor and its dynamics enable a direct emulation of both short- and long-term plasticity of biological synapses, representing an advance in hardware implementation of neuromorphic functionalities.
