Abstract
We demonstrate class I excitability in optically injected microdisk lasers, and propose a possible optical spiking neuron design. The neuron has a clear threshold and an integrating behavior, leading to an output rate-input rate dependency that is comparable to the characteristic of sigmoidal artificial neurons. We also show that the optical phase of the input pulses has influence on the neuron response, and can be used to create inhibitory, as well as excitatory perturbations. Related Research Topics
