Abstract

In this paper, a method of generating controllable spikes utilizing symmetric semiconductor ring lasers (SRLs) is investigated, and various optical behaviors of biological neurons are successfully emulated on a faster timescale. We demonstrate the synchronized spike phenomena in two directions, generated in both the clockwise (CW) and counterclockwise (CCW) modes of the tunable laser (TL)-injected SRL. The size of the peaks and the interval between them can be manipulated by adjusting the output complex amplitude of the TL and bias current. At the same time, we also analyzed the CW mode of the TL-injected SRL and successfully replicated the four distinct discharge patterns of biological neurons. These findings offer promising prospects for future neuromorphic research.
