Optical Neural Network

Part 1 of this sequence of blog posts is here.  This post assumes that you have read that one first. Summary (TL;DR) We made a photochromic neuron, but it suffered from a problem: the photochromic material was not fully reversible,

Summary (TL;DR) This describes a working design for an optical neural-net synapse that will use photons to transmit a weighted signal to a summing optoelectronic artificial neuron.  We also have a design for the neuron itself, which we will build
