Optoelectronic polymer memristors with dynamic control for power-efficient in-sensor edge computing

Abstract As the demand for edge platforms in artificial intelligence increases, including mobile devices and security applications, the surge in data influx into edge devices often triggers interference and suboptimal decision-making. There is a pressing need for solutions emphasizing low power consumption and cost-effectiveness. In-sensor computing systems employing memristors face challenges in optimizing energy efficiency and streamlining manufacturing due to the necessity for multiple physical processing components. Here, we introduce low-power organic optoelectronic memristors with synergistic optical and mV-level electrical tunable operation for a dynamic “control-on-demand” architecture. Integrating signal sensing, featuring, and processing within the same memristors enables the realization of each in-sensor analogue reservoir computing module, and minimizes circuit integration complexity. The system achieves 97.15% fingerprint recognition accuracy while maintaining a minimal reservoir size and ultra-low energy consumption. Furthermore, we leverage wafer-scale solution techniques and flexible substrates for optimal memristor fabrication. By centralizing core functionalities on the same in-sensor platform, we propose a resilient and adaptable framework for energy-efficient and economical edge computing.

Tracing terahertz plasmon polaritons with a tunable-by-design dispersion in topological insulator metaelements

Abstract Collective oscillations of massless charge carriers in two-dimensional materials—Dirac plasmon polaritons (DPPs)—are of paramount importance for engineering nanophotonic devices with tunable optical response. However, tailoring the optical properties of DPPs in a nanomaterial is a very challenging task, particularly at terahertz (THz) frequencies, where the DPP momentum is more than one order of magnitude larger than that of the free-space photons, and DDP attenuation is high. Here, we conceive and demonstrate a strategy to tune the DPP dispersion in topological insulator metamaterials. We engineer laterally coupled linear metaelements, fabricated from epitaxial Bi 2 Se 3, with selected coupling distances with the purpose to tune their wavevector, by geometry. We launch and directly map the propagation of DPPs confined within coupled meta-atoms via phase-sensitive scattering-type scanning near-field nanoscopy. We demonstrate that the DPP wavelength can be tuned by varying the metaelements coupling distance, resulting in up to a 20% increase of the polariton wavevector Re(k p ) in dimers and triplets with a 1 μm spacing, with reduced losses and a >50% increase of the polariton attenuation length.

Photon–photon chemical thermodynamics of frequency conversion processes in highly multimode systems

Abstract Frequency generation in highly multimode nonlinear optical systems is inherently a complex process, giving rise to an exceedingly convoluted landscape of evolution dynamics. While predicting and controlling the global conversion efficiencies in such nonlinear environments has long been considered impossible, here, we formally address this challenge even in scenarios involving a very large number of spatial modes. By utilizing fundamental notions from optical statistical mechanics, we develop a universal theoretical framework that effectively treats all frequency components as chemical reactants/products, capable of undergoing optical thermodynamic reactions facilitated by a variety of multi-wave mixing effects. These photon–photon reactions are governed by conservation laws that directly determine the optical temperatures and chemical potentials of the ensued chemical equilibria for each frequency species. In this context, we develop a comprehensive stoichiometric model and formally derive an expression that relates the chemical potentials to the optical stoichiometric coefficients, in a manner akin to atomic/molecular chemical reactions. This advancement unlocks new predictive capabilities that can facilitate the optimization of frequency generation in highly multimode photonic arrangements, surpassing the limitations of conventional schemes that rely exclusively on nonlinear optical dynamics. Notably, we identify a universal regime of Rayleigh–Jeans thermalization where an optical reaction at near-zero optical temperatures can promote the complete and entropically irreversible conversion of light to the fundamental mode at a target frequency. Our theoretical results are corroborated by numerical simulations in settings where second-harmonic generation, sum-frequency generation and four-wave mixing processes can manifest.
