Abstract

An integrated optical circuit for an optical neural network is provided. The integrated optical circuit is configured to process a phase-encoded optical input signal and to provide a phase-encoded output signal depending on the phase-encoded optical input signal. The phase-encoded output signal emulates a synapse functionality with respect to the phase-encoded optical input signal. A related method and a related design structure are further provided.
