[0039] Embodiments of the present disclosure are described below in detail, examples of which are shown in the drawings, wherein the same or similar notations represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by reference to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present disclosure, and cannot be understood as a limitation of the present disclosure.

[0040] With the rapid development of science and technology, the computing resources required in tasks such as deep learning, big data processing and scientific simulation have increased dramatically. This trend has led to an increasing demand for computing servers, especially in cloud computing, data centers and supercomputers. However, relying solely on traditional central processing units (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs) for computing expansion has brought a series of problems. For example, while these hardware gradually improves in performance, their power consumption also increases. In order to meet higher computing demands, more computing chips are often stacked, leading to a sharp increase in data center energy consumption, which not only increases operating costs but also has a huge impact on the environment. At the same time, traditional computing architectures also face significant bottlenecks when processing large-scale computations. The reason for this is that the bottleneck of traditional architectures is mainly in the data transmission between storage and computing resources, as well as the limitation of computing density. Even though hardware performance is constantly optimized, the energy efficiency of computing tasks grows at a much slower rate than the growth of computing demand, making it increasingly difficult to solve current large-scale computing problems through traditional computing modes.

[0041] To address these challenges, more and more researchers and enterprises are beginning to explore new computing paradigms, such as edge computing, quantum computing, photonic computing and heterogeneous computing architectures. Light has natural physical properties such as high throughput, high speed and high energy efficiency during propagation. Photonic computing technology, which uses photons instead of electrons as computing carriers, is considered a key to breaking existing computing bottlenecks. The ability to achieve high-channel parallel data transmission using spatial light propagation, and the use of chip optical computing to make computing more compact, however, due to the inability to balance high computing throughput, computing density and reconfigurability, so far there is no optical computing system that can complete supercomputing scale computing tasks (commonly known as astronomical computing, weather forecasting, particle collision data processing, etc.).

[0042] The present disclosure will be described in detail below with specific embodiments.

[0043] Figure 1 A structural schematic diagram of an intelligent optical computing chip cluster architecture provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown in FIG. 1. As shown in the figure, the intelligent optical computing chip cluster architecture includes: Figure 1

[0044] ​a plurality of optical computing chips, and the optical path channels between the plurality of optical computing chips are established by using spatial phase adjustment to modulate light beams;

[0045] By time-domain intensity modulation on the optical path channels, high-speed optical communication and optical diffraction network computing are performed between the plurality of optical computing chips.

[0046] It should be noted that the computing chips constantly communicate with each other and perform local computing to execute large-scale tasks, and the traditional computing architecture faces a significant bottleneck of lower and lower energy efficiency as the scale increases due to data transmission between storage and computing resources and the limitation of computing density. To solve this challenge, the present disclosure establishes optical path channels between chips by using spatial phase adjustment to modulate light beams, and after establishing the optical path channels, high-speed optical communication is performed between clusters by time-domain intensity modulation, and the optical path channels can simultaneously support optical diffraction network computing. This three-dimensional spatial chip stacking method can support the interconnection computing of optical computing chips in the spatial dimension without relying on electricity for information transmission.

[0047] Secondly, the optical computing chips are stacked in space to achieve high-density computing flux. The computing of the cluster is modeled as a diffraction computing network, and communication and computing can be achieved through spatial light transmission computing principle, i.e., information propagation of light. The architecture itself can complete the integrity of the information link and the computing link, and therefore has the condition of a server cluster.

[0048] For example, in a scenario, Figure 2 An application schematic diagram of the intelligent optical computing chip cluster architecture provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is shown in FIG. 1. Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1, the intelligent optical computing chip cluster architecture provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure has a single-chip super-high computing energy efficiency of 11.8 Peta OPS / W and a linearly maintained multi-chip cluster energy efficiency of ten thousand cards, which can break through the existing supercomputer server energy efficiency bottleneck, reduce the deployment cost of the computing cluster, has a high application value for scientific computing, and is expected to bring new opportunities for high-performance artificial intelligence large model computing and large-scale scientific computing in the post-Moore era.

[0049] Optionally, the optical computing chip comprises an on-chip grating transmitting module and an on-chip grating receiving module, and the optical path channels between the plurality of optical computing chips are established by using spatial phase adjustment to modulate light beams through the on-chip grating transmitting module and the on-chip grating receiving module.

[0050] According to some embodiments, in the on-chip grating transmitting module, the on-chip light is modulated and then coupled out from the waveguide to become spatial light through the grating, and the spatial light is modulated by using spatial phase adjustment to establish the optical path channels.

[0051] It should be noted that the multiple optical computing chips are connected through the on-chip grating emission and reception mode, and all the calculations are completed in the spatial physical propagation of light. Since no additional electricity is introduced for communication and calculation, the energy consumption increases linearly with the calculation scale, breaking the inherent bottleneck that the larger the calculation scale, the lower the energy efficiency.

[0052] Optionally, when the multiple optical computing chips perform optical diffraction network calculation, the method is specifically used for:

[0053] Obtaining a to-be-calculated task;

[0054] Optimizing the initial emission phase of each optical computing chip in the multiple optical computing chips according to the to-be-calculated task, until a target emission phase meeting an optimization requirement is obtained;

[0055] Based on the target emission phase, the multiple optical computing chips form an optical diffraction network corresponding to the to-be-calculated task, and perform the to-be-calculated task based on the optical diffraction network to obtain a calculation result.

[0056] According to some embodiments, diffraction patterns of different distances can be corrected by adding a specific Fresnel phase, so that the diffraction receiving patterns of short and long distances only change in scale and do not change in relative pattern. The following proves that the diffraction phase wave front meeting the Fresnel diffraction condition is In the case of a propagation distance of , the diffraction pattern can be written as:

[0057]

[0058] wherein, represents the pattern after diffraction. represents the spatial position. represents the diffraction coefficient. k represents the wave vector.

[0059] Similarly, a same diffraction phase wave front is In the case of a propagation distance of , only the Fresnel phase modulation needs to be introduced to achieve correction, which can be mathematically described as:

[0060]

[0061] Then, the two formulas are expanded respectively to obtain:

[0062]

[0063]

[0064]

[0065]

[0066] where the Fresnel phase The modulation satisfies That is, in the case of different distance propagation, the same computing power can be achieved, that is:

[0067]

[0068] Therefore, when optimizing the initial emission phase of each optical computing chip in the plurality of optical computing chips according to the to-be-computed task, the initial emission phase of each optical computing chip in the plurality of optical computing chips can be modulated according to the Fresnel phase. Thus, the cluster chip is enlarged in the integrated space, and the number of optical chip clusters can be further increased, while the computing capability is not weakened. The physical properties of the intelligent optical computing chip cluster prove the possibility of more than ten thousand optical computing chip clusters.

[0069] According to some embodiments, when optimizing the initial emission phase of each optical computing chip in the plurality of optical computing chips according to the to-be-computed task, the initial emission phase of each optical computing chip in the plurality of optical computing chips can also be modeled as a trainable parameter; and a neural network is used to train the trainable parameter with the maximum signal-to-noise ratio as the optimization target.

[0070] In some embodiments, the initial emission phase of each optical computing chip in the plurality of optical computing chips can be modeled as a trainable parameter according to the following formula :

[0071]

[0072] In some embodiments, when training the trainable parameter with the maximum signal-to-noise ratio as the optimization target, a loss function can be established as the energy of the target point, as shown in the following formula:

[0073]

[0074] wherein, is the distance of propagation, is the transverse position of the receiving plane.

[0075] According to some embodiments, the initial emission phases of all optical computing chips in the plurality of optical computing chips can constitute an optical phased array, and the on-chip grating emission modules of the optical computing chips can complete elevation angle traversal through wavelength scanning, and the yaw angle can be achieved by modulating the optical phased array. The present disclosure can improve the energy intensity of each optical computing chip by optimizing the energy of the phased array with a neural network to achieve the maximum signal-to-noise ratio.

[0076] In some embodiments, Figure 3 A display schematic diagram of a field of view range of a light computing cluster interconnection computing addressing space provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 3 The left graph in FIG. 1 represents the received energy distribution of the optical computing chip without optimization by the neural network, Figure 3 The right graph in FIG. 1 represents the received energy distribution of the optical computing chip after training and optimization. It can be seen that the energy intensity is improved by more than 3-5 dB after optimization by the neural network. Finally, the elevation and yaw angle range can be 30 degrees, which relative to the physical size of the chip itself makes it possible to cluster more than 50 chips in a two-chip array plane at a distance of 1 m, demonstrating the possibility of high-density and large-scale clustering of optical computing chips in space.

[0077] Taking a scenario as an example, Figure 4 A display schematic diagram of an effective range of a light computing cluster interconnection computing addressing distance provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. As Figure 4 shown, by optimizing the initial emission phase of the optical computing chip through the architecture, the transmission and computation distance between the optical computing chips can be adapted to a range of 0.1 m to 1000 m or even larger.

[0078] In summary, the architecture provided by the present embodiment can achieve ultra-large-scale computing tasks with extremely high energy efficiency, which is crucial for processing complex AI models and large-scale data sets. This efficient computing capability can accelerate research in fields such as new material discovery, genome analysis, and climate modeling, promoting scientific progress. At the same time, the flexibility of the optical computing architecture makes it possible to seamlessly integrate with existing computing systems, promoting interdisciplinary cooperation and driving the application and innovation of artificial intelligence technology in various fields. Ultimately, this will enable researchers to gain insights more quickly, driving further technological development.
