Polarization-resolved and polarization- multiplexed spike encoding properties in photonic neuron based on VCSEL-SA

Abstract The spike encoding properties of two polarization-resolved modes in vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser with an embedded saturable absorber (VCSEL-SA) are investigated numerically, based on the spin-flip model combined with the Yamada model. The results show that the external input optic...
