Spiking neurons and neural networks constitute a fundamental building block for brain-inspired computing, which is posed to benefit significantly from photonic hardware implementations.

Furthermore, we also investigate in theory the prospects of the proposed system for its nanophotonic implementation with a monolithic design combining a nanoscale RTD element and a nanolaser; therefore demonstrating the potential of integrated RTD-based excitable nodes for low footprint, high-speed optoelectronic spiking neurons in future neuromorphic photonic hardware.
