A microresonator pumped with a CW laser (a) produces a microcomb with stable or chaotic behavior, as well as pure quartic soliton (PQS) pulse trains depending on the pump frequency (b). A high-energy random initial state will evolve with time and settle to a stable pulse with near-Gaussian power profile (c) and uniform power spectrum having a remarkable 3 dB bandwidth (d).

Shown are tuning curves for three quantum dots positioned on the waveguide at the locations shown in the inset, to achieve identical emission (a). High-resolution Fabry-Perot interferometer measurements show all three quantum dots simultaneously from an output coupler with identical emission wavelength (b).

FIGURE 1. In the scalable setting of a spatial photonic Ising machine, binary spins are encoded in the phase of a laser beam (green) by spatial modulation. Tailoring of the beam’s amplitude fixes spin-spin interaction. To find the ground-state spin configuration, the machine recurrently evolves according to a feedback signal from the camera plane. By design, maximizing the intensity in a target region (blue square) corresponds to a spin state with minimum energy.
