    sensors Review Nanosystems, Edge Computing, and the Next Generation Computing Systems Ali Passian * and Neena Imam Computing & Computational Sciences Directorate, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, TN 37830, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 30 July 2019; Accepted: 16 September 2019; Published: 19 September 2019 Abstract: It is widely recognized that nanoscience and nanotechnology and their subfields, such as nanophotonics, nanoelectronics, and nanomechanics, have had a tremendous impact on recent advances in sensing, imaging, and communication, with notable developments, including novel transistors and processor architectures. For example, in addition to being supremely fast, optical and photonic components and devices are capable of operating across multiple orders of magnitude length, power, and spectral scales, encompassing the range from macroscopic device sizes and kW energies to atomic domains and single-photon energies. The extreme versatility of the associated electromagnetic phenomena and applications, both classical and quantum, are therefore highly appealing to the rapidly evolving computing and communication realms, where innovations in both hardware and software are necessary to meet the growing speed and memory requirements. Development of all-optical components, photonic chips, interconnects, and processors will bring the speed of light, photon coherence properties, field confinement and enhancement, information-carrying capacity, and the broad spectrum of light into the high-performance computing, the internet of things, and industries related to cloud, fog, and recently edge computing. Conversely, owing to their extraordinary properties, 0D, 1D, and 2D materials are being explored as a physical basis for the next generation of logic components and processors. Carbon nanotubes, for example, have been recently used to create a new processor beyond proof of principle.

With the constant development in the PCM platform and integration of multiple material platforms, more and more reconfigurable photonic devices and their dynamic regulation have been theoretically proposed and experimentally demonstrated, showing the great potential of PCMs in integrated photonic chips. Here, we review the recent developments in PCMs and discuss their potential for photonic devices. A universal overview of the mechanism of the phase transition and models of PCMs is presented. PCMs have injected new life into on-chip photonic integrated circuits, which generally contain an optical switch, Citation: Wang, X.; Qi, H.; Hu, X.; an optical logical gate, and an optical modulator.

  • Extending the Road Beyond CMOS
    By James A. Hutchby, George I. Bourianoff, Victor V. Zhirnov, and Joe E. Brewer he quickening pace of MOSFET technology scaling, as seen in the new 2001 International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors [1], is ac- celerating the introduction of many new technologies to extend CMOS Tinto nanoscale MOSFET structures heretofore not thought possible. A cautious optimism is emerging that these new technologies may extend MOSFETs to the 22-nm node (9-nm physical gate length) by 2016 if not by the end of this decade. These new devices likely will feature several new materials cleverly incorporated into new nonbulk MOSFET structures. They will be ultra fast and dense with a voracious appetite for power. Intrinsic device speeds may be more than 1 THz and integration densities will exceed 1 billion transistors per cm2. Excessive power consumption, however, will demand judicious use of these high-performance devices only in those critical paths requiring their su- perior performance. Two or perhaps three other lower performance, more power-efficient MOSFETs will likely be used to perform less performance-criti- cal functions on the chip to manage the total power consumption. Beyond CMOS, several completely new approaches to information-process- ing and data-storage technologies and architectures are emerging to address the timeframe beyond the current roadmap. Rather than vying to “replace” CMOS, one or more of these embryonic paradigms, when combined with a CMOS plat- form, could extend microelectronics to new applications domains currently not accessible to CMOS. A successful new information-processing paradigm most likely will require a new platform technology embodying a fabric of intercon- nected primitive logic cells, perhaps in three dimensions.

  • Photonic Computing by Smit Patel What Is Photonic Computing?
    PHOTONIC COMPUTING BY SMIT PATEL WHAT IS PHOTONIC COMPUTING? • Optical Computing • Photonic computers perform its computations with photons or IR beams as opposed to electron-based computation which are seen in the traditional computers. • Two types: Pure Optical Computers & Electro-Optical Hybrid ELECTRO-OPTICAL HYBRID • Use optical fibers and electric parts to read and direct data from the processor Light pulses send information instead of voltage packets. • Processors change from binary code to light pulses using lasers. • Information is then detected and decoded electronically back into binary. OPTICAL TRANSISTORS • Transistors based off the Fabry-Perot Interferometer. • Constructive interference yields a high intensity (a 1 in binary) • Destructive interference yields an intensity close to zero (a 0 in binary) HOLOGRAPHIC MEMORY • A holographic memory can store data in the form of a hologram within a crystal. • A laser is split into a reference beam and a signal beam. • Signal beam goes through the logic gate and receives information • The two beams then meet up again and interference pattern creates a hologram in the crystal. HOLOGRAPHIC MEMORY OPTICAL FIBERS • Small in size • Low transmission losses • No interference from radio frequencies, electromagnetic components, or crosstalk • Safer • More secure • Environmental immunity OPTICAL FIBERS PROS • Small size • Increased speed • Low heating • Reconfigurable • Scalable for larger or small networks • More complex functions done faster Applications for Artificial Intelligence • Less power consumption (500 microwatts per interconnect length vs. 10 mW for electrical) LIMITS OF PHOTONIC COMPUTING • Optical fibers on a chip are wider than electrical traces. • Crystals need 1mm of length and are much larger than current transistors • Software needed to design and run the computers.

  • Chapter 8 Photonic Neuromorphic Signal Processing and Computing
    Chapter 8 Photonic Neuromorphic Signal Processing and Computing Alexander N. Tait, Mitchell A. Nahmias, Yue Tian, Bhavin J. Shastri and Paul R. Prucnal Abstract There has been a recent explosion of interest in spiking neural networks (SNNs), which code information as spikes or events in time. Spike encoding is widely accepted as the information medium underlying the brain, but it has also inspired a new generation of neuromorphic hardware. Although electronics can match biologi- cal time scales and exceed them, they eventually reach a bandwidth fan-in trade-off. An alternative platform is photonics, which could process highly interactive infor- mation at speeds that electronics could never reach. Correspondingly, processing techniques inspired by biology could compensate for many of the shortcomings that bar digital photonic computing from feasibility, including high defect rates and signal control problems. We summarize properties of photonic spike processing and ini- tial experiments with discrete components. A technique for mapping this paradigm to scalable, integrated laser devices is explored and simulated in small networks. This approach promises to wed the advantageous aspects of both photonic physics and unconventional computing systems. Further development could allow for fully scalable photonic networks that would open up a new domain of ultrafast, robust, and adaptive processing. Applications of this technology ranging from nanosecond response control systems to fast cognitive radio could potentially revitalize special- ized photonic computing. 8.1 Introduction The brain, unlike the von Neumann processors found in conventional computers, is very power efficient, extremely effective at certain computing tasks, and highly adaptable to novel situations and environments. While these favorable properties are often largely credited to the unique connectionism of biological nervous systems, it is A.
