The development of artificial neurons has been a significant milestone in the field of neuroscience and artificial intelligence (AI). Among the various innovations, the laser-based artificial neuron stands out due to its remarkable speed and efficiency.

Design and Functionality of Laser-based Artificial Neurons

The laser-based artificial neuron utilizes a chip-based quantum-dot laser to emulate the functions of biological neurons. This innovative design achieves a signal processing speed of 10 GBaud, which is a billion times faster than its biological counterparts. The quantum-dot laser technology is pivotal in achieving such high speeds, as it allows for rapid signal processing and efficient data handling.
