The storage density of traditional two-dimensional storage (such as NAND and DRAM) is limited by the physical limits of photolithography and cannot be further improved. Although three-dimensional stacking technology has made some breakthroughs, it is still limited by the bandwidth of serial addressing.
[0004] Third, the positioning problem of three-dimensional addressing. In the research of three-dimensional optical storage, a fundamental problem is that there may be multiple crystal phase change points on a laser beam. When the reading laser is blocked by the first point in advance, it is impossible to read the subsequent points, and it is also impossible to determine the specific location where the blockage occurred.

[0021] Example 1 like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a six-sided three-dimensional optical storage and computing integrated chip, comprising: The three-dimensional storage body 1 is a square or rectangular body formed by stacking and bonding nanocrystalline materials with a light-transmitting adhesive. The nanocrystalline materials have a crystal phase-dependent third-order nonlinear polarizability and are treated with a special process to make all nanocrystalline phases consistent. The special process includes one or more combinations of annealing, laser pre-irradiation, or electric field-induced treatment.
[0022] Six optoelectronic fusion chips are respectively attached to the six outer surfaces of the three-dimensional storage body 1, and the six optoelectronic fusion chips form three pairs of opposite optoelectronic fusion chips.
[0023] The laser writing module is located in the middle of the three sets of face-to-face photoelectric fusion chip pairs. It is used to control the three sets of face-to-face photoelectric fusion chip pairs to simultaneously emit high-frequency, high-power laser beams when storing information, thereby changing the nanocrystalline phase inside the three-dimensional storage body 1.
[0024] The laser reading module is located in the middle of the three sets of face-to-face optoelectronic fusion chip pairs. When reading information, it controls the three sets of face-to-face optoelectronic fusion chip pairs to simultaneously emit low-frequency, low-power laser beams to excite the third-order nonlinear polarizability of the altered nanocrystalline phase and generate four-wave mixed signal light. The laser reading module adopts single-point reading mode and parallel reading mode.
[0025] The three sets of opposite-side optoelectronic fusion chip pairs include: The information input optoelectronic fusion chip pair (left and right information input optoelectronic fusion chip 3) is used to emit a laser beam propagating along the X-axis. Receive and read signals; The information output optoelectronic fusion chip pair (front and rear information output optoelectronic fusion chip 4) is used to emit a laser beam propagating along the Y-axis. It receives and reads signals, and makes judgments based on the four-wave mixed signal light. The resource retrieval operation optoelectronic fusion chip pair (upper and lower resource retrieval operation optoelectronic fusion chip 2) is used to emit a laser beam propagating along the Z-axis. Receive and read signals.
[0026] Each optoelectronic fusion chip includes a control circuit, a calibration memory, a light-emitting unit, and a receiving unit. The light-emitting unit is a VCSEL laser emitting array used to emit laser beams, and the receiving unit is a high-sensitivity photodetector array used to detect four-wave mixing signals.
[0027] In this embodiment, the laser writing module changes the internal nanocrystalline phase of the three-dimensional storage 1, specifically including: as follows Figure 4 As shown, during information storage, the light-emitting units of the three sets of opposite optoelectronic fusion chip pairs are controlled to simultaneously emit high-frequency, high-power laser beams, causing the three laser beams to orthogonally converge at the target microcrystalline particle location within the three-dimensional storage volume 1. Through the accumulation of energy from high-frequency, high-power lasers, the microcrystalline phase at the target microcrystalline particle sites reaches a threshold, causing a change in the microcrystalline phase. The changed microcrystalline phase exhibits different third-order nonlinear polarizabilities. The frequency range of the high-frequency, high-power laser is [specified range]. Hz, with a power range of 10-100mW, causes a change in crystal phase.
[0028] The three laser beams are: :parameter The optical path is ; :parameter The optical path is ; :parameter The optical path is .
[0029] In this embodiment, the principle of generating four-wave mixing signal light includes: like Figure 2 As shown, when the frequencies of the three beams are respectively When lasers intersect orthogonally at the same point in a nonlinear medium, the third-order nonlinear polarizability is altered by changes in the microcrystalline phase. The effect of this will produce a fourth beam with a frequency of The signal light, the formula is: ; in, It is a third-order nonlinear polarization intensity. Let be the electric field intensity of the three incident laser beams.
[0030] The intensity of the four-wave mixing signal light is: ; in, This is a coefficient related to the length of the medium, wavelength, etc.
[0031] The four-wave mixing process needs to meet the phase matching condition: ; In an orthogonal geometric configuration, the wave vectors of the three laser beams are perpendicular to each other. The phase matching condition can only be satisfied when the three laser beams intersect precisely orthogonally at the same point. Any deviation will lead to phase mismatch, and the four-wave mixing efficiency will drop sharply.
[0032] The laser readout module generates a four-wave mixed signal light, specifically including: like Figure 5 As shown, during information reading, the three sets of opposite-side optoelectronic fusion chips simultaneously emit low-frequency, low-power laser beams to the light-emitting unit, causing the three laser beams to intersect orthogonally at the target microcrystalline particle location. When the crystal phase at the target microcrystalline particle location has changed and all three laser beams can reach the target microcrystalline particle location, the three laser beams generate a four-wave mixing signal light by changing the third-order nonlinear polarizability. Among them, the frequency range of the low-frequency, low-power laser beam is: Hz, power range of 0.1-1mW, generating four-wave mixing signals without causing crystal phase change, and the signal light intensity meets the requirements. , express exist The light intensity at that location, express exist The light intensity at that location, express exist The light intensity at that location, express The third-order nonlinear polarizability after the microcrystalline phase is changed.
[0033] like Figure 6 As shown, when multiple microcrystalline phase change sites exist within the three-dimensional storage volume 1 At this time, the four-wave mixing signal light energy automatically eliminates interference from premature blocking: if any low-frequency, low-power laser beam is blocked by other crystal phase-changing points before reaching the target microcrystalline particle, the light intensity of that laser beam at the target microcrystalline particle will be zero, resulting in... The four-wave mixing signal light could not be generated. Therefore, the existence of the four-wave mixing signal light itself proves that none of the three laser beams were blocked in advance, and that the crystal phase at the target point has changed, achieving the unique determination of the point in three-dimensional space, such as... Figure 3 As shown.
[0034] The relationship between the four-wave mixing signal and early blocking is as follows: For the target location Four-wave mixed signal light can be detected when: 1. The crystalline phase has changed; 2. In There are no crystal phase change sites in the optical path. satisfy ; 3. In There are no crystal phase change sites in the optical path. satisfy ; 4. In There are no crystal phase change sites in the optical path. satisfy , for Phase change points along the optical path of Axis coordinates For target location of Axis coordinates; for Phase change points along the optical path of y Axis coordinates For target location of y Axis coordinates; for Phase change points along the optical path z-axis coordinate, For target location The z-axis coordinate.
[0035] If it exists satisfy ,but exist The area was blocked. Therefore If it exists satisfy ,but exist The area was blocked. Therefore If it exists satisfy ,but exist The area was blocked. Therefore .
[0036] like If the crystal phase remains unchanged, then Typically much smaller , Very small or none.
[0037] We get the following only when all four conditions are met: and ,at this time .
[0038] In this embodiment, the reading judgment based on the four-wave mixed signal light includes: the information output optoelectronic fusion chip detects the four-wave mixed signal light by the receiving unit; if a strong four-wave mixed signal light is detected, it is determined that the target microcrystalline particle position has stored information; otherwise, it is determined that no information is stored or the reading is invalid. The judgment logic is shown in Table 1. Table 1 Read Judgment Logic

Groups of low-frequency, low-power laser beams, respectively corresponding to Different target microcrystalline particle sites, producing A four-wave mixed-frequency light signal, information output optoelectronic fusion chip for... The group receiving unit simultaneously The four-wave mixed frequency signal light is read and judged.
[0040] In this embodiment, the six-sided three-dimensional optical storage and computing integrated chip also includes a calibration module. The calibration module is connected to three sets of face-to-face optoelectronic fusion chips to achieve precise calibration of the light-emitting and receiving units of the three sets of face-to-face optoelectronic fusion chips. Calibration is complete when signal continuity is detected between any two pairs of light-emitting and receiving units. The calibration process includes: Each light-emitting unit is activated sequentially to emit a calibration laser; All receiving units on the opposite side are detected simultaneously, and the actual received unit positions are recorded; Establish a mapping table between theoretical coordinates and actual light-emitting units; The mapping table is stored in the chip's calibration memory.
[0041] In this embodiment, a cognitive system is provided on the three-dimensional storage body 1, such as... Figure 8 As shown, the cognitive system includes: The input module, connected to the information input optoelectronic fusion chip, is used to receive multimodal external input information; The memory module includes a short-term memory unit, a long-term memory unit, and a permanent memory unit. The long-term memory unit and the permanent memory unit store the input information in the nanocrystalline particles of the three-dimensional storage body 1 through the collaborative writing of three sets of face-to-face optoelectronic fusion chip pairs. The reasoning module is connected to the resource call operation optoelectronic fusion chip and is used to perform logical reasoning based on input information and stored information. The output module, connected to the information output optoelectronic fusion chip, is used to output the reasoning results; The inner loop module is used to perform frequency statistics, weight calculation and correlation analysis on stored information when the cognitive system is idle, and to extract the strong correlations verified by high frequency into the law of permanent memory.
[0042] In this embodiment, the resolution of the optoelectronic fusion chip is set to: X-side chip (left and right information input optoelectronic fusion chip 3): One light-emitting unit; Y-side chip (front and rear information output optoelectronic fusion chip 4): One light-emitting unit; Z-side chip (top and bottom resource retrieval operation optoelectronic fusion chip 2): One light-emitting unit; The total number of storage points is: ; When the density of light-emitting units reaches the optical diffraction limit ,in, is the laser wavelength.

Calibrate the three sets of face-to-face photoelectric fusion chip pairs through the calibration module to establish the mapping relationship between the light-emitting unit and the receiving unit. S2. Information writing: When storing information, the light-emitting units of the three sets of opposite optoelectronic fusion chip pairs are controlled to simultaneously emit high-frequency, high-power laser beams, so that the three laser beams orthogonally converge at the target microcrystalline particle position inside the three-dimensional storage body 1. Through the energy accumulation of high-frequency and high-power lasers, the microcrystalline phase at the target microcrystalline particle site reaches the threshold, and the microcrystalline phase changes. The changed microcrystalline phase has different third-order nonlinear polarizabilities. S3. Single-point information reading: When reading information, the light-emitting units of the three sets of opposite optoelectronic fusion chip pairs are controlled to simultaneously emit three low-frequency, low-power laser beams, so that the three laser beams are focused on the target microcrystalline particle location.

The group receiving unit simultaneously The four-wave mixed frequency signal light is read and judged.
[0045] Example 3 Chip fabrication and calibration: Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) nanocrystals with a particle size of 5-50 nm were selected and mixed with a light-transmitting binder, then stacked layer by layer to form a 10mm×10mm×10mm cubic three-dimensional memory, for a total of 1000 layers. GST material has significantly different third-order nonlinear polarizability values in crystalline and amorphous states. After annealing at 150℃ for 2 hours, all microcrystals were made to have the same crystal phase (initially assumed to be crystalline).
[0046] Six 10mm × 10mm optoelectronic fusion chips were fabricated, each integrating a 1024 × 1024 VCSEL laser emitting array (wavelength adjustable: 650nm for writing, 1550nm for reading) and a corresponding PIN photodetector array (for detecting four-wave mixing signals). The six chips were attached to the six sides of a three-dimensional memory module and fixed with optical adhesive.
[0047] Each light-emitting unit is activated sequentially, the actual position of the receiving unit is recorded, and a 1024×1024×1024 three-dimensional mapping table is established.
[0048] Information writing: Target microcrystalline particle locations: (256, 512, 768); Write parameters: Laser wavelength: 650nm (red light, frequency) Hz); Laser power: 50mW; Pulse width: 100ns; During information storage, the information input to the optoelectronic fusion chip activates unit X=256 and emits... ; The information output optoelectronic fusion chip activates the Y=512 unit and emits. The resource allocation operation of the optoelectronic fusion chip activates the Z=768 unit and emits. Three laser beams intersect orthogonally at (256, 512, 768); the superposition of energy reaches the threshold, and the GST crystal phase changes from a crystalline state to an amorphous state; after the crystal phase change, the energy at this point... from Become Information storage complete.
[0049] Information reading (without prior blocking): The target microcrystalline particle location (256,512,768) is assumed to have been written and that there are no other locations closer to the light source in its optical path.
[0050] Read parameters: Laser wavelength: 1550nm (infrared, frequency) Hz); Laser power: 0.5mW; Continuous wave; Three sets of face-to-face optoelectronic fusion chips are controlled to simultaneously emit three laser beams with parameters corresponding to (256, 512, 768). The three laser beams intersect orthogonally at (256, 512, 768); since the crystal phase at this point has changed (amorphous state). The signal is relatively large, meeting the phase matching condition, generating a four-wave mixed signal light. The photoelectric fusion chip detects the four-wave mixed signal on the photodetector, and the system determines that there is a signal and that there is information at this point, outputting "1".
[0051] Information reading (with cases of advance blocking), such as Figure 9 As shown: Suppose that the memory contains: Written (located in) On the optical path, ) Target microcrystalline particle sites, ; Control three sets of face-to-face optoelectronic fusion chips to simultaneously emit three beams of excitation, with corresponding parameters (256,512,768); Laser propagation, in Encounter Blocked, unable to reach ; and Laser flow is unobstructed and reaches its destination. ;exist Due to The product of the three laser beams is zero, and no four-wave mixing signal is generated; The photodetector of the optoelectronic fusion chip did not detect the four-wave mixing signal. The determination is: no signal, no information at this point or invalid reading, output "0".
[0052] Parallel reading: It is necessary to continuously read 1024 points, and the coordinates are pre-calculated.
[0053] Three sets of opposite-side photoelectric fusion chips simultaneously activate 1024 light-emitting units; The system emits 1024 sets of three laser beams, forming 1024 orthogonal intersection points within the storage device. At each intersection point, if the conditions are met, a four-wave mixing signal is generated. The information output is synchronously detected by the 1024 receiving units of the optoelectronic fusion chip, and 1024 bits of data are output at once, increasing the bandwidth by 1024 times.
[0054] Example 4 A four-wave mixing signal verification experiment was conducted to verify the sensitivity of four-wave mixing to early blocking. The experimental design is as follows: Write a single point into a three-dimensional storage volume Read using three laser beams Measure the strength of the four-wave mixing signal; exist Previously written to another point (On the same optical path), read again , to measure signal strength.
[0055] Result: None At that time, a strong four-wave mixing signal was detected. At that time, the signal disappeared.
[0056] Therefore, the present invention adopts the above-mentioned six-sided three-dimensional optical storage and computing integrated chip and its storage and computing method, and uses the third-order nonlinear optical effect four-wave mixing to realize the uniqueness determination of information writing and reading.
