Abstract
An optoelectronic module according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a photodetector that receives an input light and converts the input light to generate a first current, an electronic element that amplifies the first current to generate a second current, and a light source element that converts the second current to generate an output light. The output light has characteristics of a result of performing a non-linear computation of an optical artificial neural network.
