Surface wave memory correlator with optical write-in

S. Takada, K. Hoh, Hisao Hayakawa +1 more

A surface wave memory device in which a light pulse emitted from a GaAs laser diode is used to store surface wave signals is described. The storage of 87-MHz surface wave signals in surface states in silicon is obtained by using a light pulse with a duration of 0.5 nsec. Pulse compression experiments are also demonstrated by storing linear FM chirp signals with this method.

Time-Frequency Domain Memory and Processing

David L. Huestis, Gregory W. Faris, E. Arons

This report summarizes the results of a 3-year program of research on the physics and technology needed to develop high-performance optical memory and optical processing systems based on the concept called the stimulated photon echo (SPE). The research goals were investigation, demonstration, and improvement of signal strength and fidelity, architectures and algorithms, and materials properties for optical storage and in-memory processing. Key accomplishments were (1) development and demonstration of efficient algorithms for threshold discrimination and bit-error-rate reduction in retrieved binary images with large in-frame and frame-to-frame intensity variations; (2) demonstration and characterization of information storage in Erbium-doped crystals using 1.5-micron diode lasers compatible with fiber optic communications; (3) demonstration of improved phase-encoding schemes for in-memory temporal correlation of 1.5-micron pulse trains; (4) development of concepts for high-performance radar applications based on SPE optical memory for time-delay control of the transmitter array and in-memory image processing of the return signals; and (5) hosting the AFOSR Contractors' Meeting, "Optoelectronic Information Processing."

Time-domain optical memory for image storage and high-speed image processing

Xiao A. Shen, Ravinder Kachru

We present an experimental study on the use of the time-domain optical memory for image storage and high-speed image processing. We focus on examining the fidelity of the recalled images and their spatial resolution as well as various image-processing operations offered by the memory. The recalled images were found to be of good quality because of their phase-conjugate nature. This unique feature further motivated us to examine the feasibility of fiber optics being used for image transmission, an issue important to the development of such a memory device. Two primary processing operations, two-image convolution and correlation, were demonstrated, and implications of the results for high-speed pattern recognition and optical interconnections are discussed.
