As a Basic study to implement a wide-band photonic switching sysetm, we proposed a scheme of free-space-division-multiplexed photonic switching based on a holographic interconnectio method and carried out simple experiments on it. First, we recorded holgraphic interconnection element array for nonblocking optical interconnections. Just a single stage of the array realizes full optical interconnections between NN${\times}$NN input prots and NN${\times}$NN output ports in 3-D space. Next, in reading of the array for optical internnections, we showed that the zeroth-order diffacted beam could be eliminated in the output port by introducing a right angle prism. The elimination of the zeroth-order diffracted beam reduces optical noise in the output ports and provides conveniences of interconnection control in our scheme. Finally, from the experiments on ON-OFF switching of the optical interconnection paths one by one using a spatial (display of the liquid crystal telecision), we showed the feasibility of photonic wsitching based on the holographic interconnection method. We also estimated approximately the maximum interconnectio scale that can be realized without difficulty with current optical devices.

In this paper, a simple scheme of two-stage free-space photonic swiching system for nonblocking optical interconnections has been investigated using holgorams. The multistage system requires a smaller number of interconnections for a given number of inpuut-output nonblocking ports than the single stage system does. Here hologram elements were used to change interconnection beam paths. In order to increase the idffraction efficiency of the hologram elements in photographic plates, a bleaching technique was used, which converts the amplitude hologram to the phase hologram. To show sthe feasibility of our optical interconnection system, it was implemented using the bleached hologram arrays and an LCTV spatial light modulator, and the sytem as a photonic switching system was demonstrated.

In this paper, a new adaptive learning algorithm, Training by Adaptive Gain (TAG) for optical implementation of large-sized neural networks has been developed and its electro-optical implementation for 2-dimensional input and output neurons has been demostrated. The 4-dimensional global fixed interconnections and 2-dimensional adaptive gain-controls are implemented by multi-facet computer generated holograms and LCTV spatial light modulators, respectively. When the input signals pass through optical system to the output classifying layer, the TAG adaptive learning algorithm is implemented by a personal computer. The system classifies three 5$\times$5 input patterns correctly.

A method for optical representation and modulation of synaptic interconnections between neurons using photoanisotropic amorphous As2S3 thin film is discussed. Experimental results show that the proposed method can be used for the representation of not only excitatory synaptic connections but also inhibitory synaptic connections. Applications of the method to the implementation of optical learning machine is also discussed.

A method of adaptive formation of the synthetic discriminant function(SDF) both in image plane and spatial frequency plane by using the Widrow-Hoff learning rule is proposed. The proposed method uses minimum number of interconnections between neurons so it can reduce the time for learning the neural net. Also complex valued interconnection weights are introduced for the purposes of handling the phase objects or Fourier transformed spatial frequency objects which usually have complex values for the representation of not only amplitude but also phase information. Also methods of optical implementation for the complex valued interconnection weights are discussed.

A video signal through a high-density optical link has been demonstrated to show the reliability of optical link for high-data-rate transmission. To reduce optical point-to-point links, an electrical link has been utilized for control and clock signaling. The latency and flicker with background noise occurred during the transferring of data across the optical link due to electrical-to-optical with optical-to-electrical conversions. The proposed synchronization technology combined with a flicker and denoising algorithm has given good results and can be applied in high-definition serial data interface (HD-SDI), ultra-HD-SDI, and HD multimedia interface transmission system applications.

It is demonstrated that the conventional current-pulse laser drivers are not adequate in driving VCSELs operating at multi-Gb/s speeds. Simulation results, including the bonding parasitics, show that high-performance VCSELs are more efficiently driven using voltage-pulse mode of operation. The optical output power is almost doubled in the voltage-mode of operation, while the total electrical power consumption of the transmitter decreases by 20%.

An optical implementation of higher order neural networks based on based principal component analysis and time integration has been described. The principal component analysis combined with time integration allows larger input size than fully spatial neural networks at the cost certain amount of time consumption. This time-integration usage actually breaks down the barrier of the maximum space-bandwidth product that optical systems can offer.

In this paper, we used differential amplifiers to reduce crosstalk in a wireless in-house optical interconnection in which two channel beams are overlapped. Experimental results show that environmental optical noise is also reduced using the same principle. This method is realized very easily with differential amplifiers without any optical filters or electrical filters. It is very useful in short distance optical interconnections.

Networks-on-chip (NoC) is emerging as a key technology to overcome severe bus traffics in ever-increasing complexity of the Multiprocessor systems-on-chip (MPSoC); however traditional electrical interconnection based NoC architecture would be faced with technical limits of bandwidth and power consumptions in the near future. In order to cope with these problems, a hybrid optical NoC architecture which use both electrical interconnects and optical interconnects together, has been widely investigated. In the hybrid optical NoCs, wormhole switching and simple deterministic X-Y routing are used for the electrical interconnections which is responsible for the setup of routing path and optical router to transmit optical data through optical interconnects. Optical NoC uses circuit switching method to send payload data by preset paths and routers. However, conventional hybrid optical NoC has a drawback that concurrent transmissions are not allowed. Therefore, performance improvement is limited. In this paper, we propose a new routing algorithm that uses circuit switching and adaptive algorithm for the electrical interconnections to transmit data using multiple paths simultaneously. We also propose an efficient method to prevent livelock problems. Experimental results show up to 60% throughput improvement compared to a hybrid optical NoC and 65% power reduction compared to an electrical NoC.
