Benoît Cluzel, a researcher at the ICB Laboratory, co-authored an article in the scientific journal Photoniques, alongside François Courvoisier, a researcher at the FEMTO-ST Institute.

This publication highlights the excellence of the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region in the fields of optics and photonics. With a scientific tradition spanning several decades, the region now benefits from a particularly dynamic research and innovation ecosystem. The article focuses in particular on the key role of research laboratories, such as the ICB Laboratory and the FEMTO-ST Institute, as well as the strong industrial presence in the region, with leading companies invested in these technologies.

Through this publication, the ICB confirms its commitment to developing high-level research and its involvement in scientific and technological advancements in photonics.

📖 The article is available open access: DOI: 10.1051/photon/202412921

“Best known for its major sectors in agri-food, luxury goods, automotive, energy, health and microtechnology, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté also boasts a dynamic ecosystem in optics and photonics, the result of a long tradition of research and innovation. This region has developed cutting-edge skills by relying on internationally recognized research laboratories, and has created leading industrial players in optics and lasers.”

Artificial Neurons Communicating Through Light: A Major Advance for Hardware-Based Artificial Intelligence

Current artificial intelligence performance relies heavily on energy-intensive computing architectures that are difficult to miniaturize. A team of researchers is now proposing a radically new approach: memristic artificial neurons capable of communicating with each other through light, paving the way for ultra-compact and highly efficient three-dimensional neural networks. In a recently published article in Nature […]
