OREO_concept_ Photonic computation with sound waves (IMAGE)
Caption
Information carried by an optical pulse is partially converted into an acoustic wave. The information remains in the acoustic wave even after the light pulse has left the optical fiber. This initial acoustic wave affects the second and third light-sound processing step with the subsequent input pulses carrying different information than the previous ones. As a result, acoustic waves connect in time seperated dynamics and serve as an information propagation medium.
