Phase change photonics has become a promising research field due to its applications in non-volatile photonic memory, optical switching, signal processing, and neuromorphic photonic computing. Absorption tunability in phase change materials enables weight setting with fast speed, low power consumption, and multilevel operation for matrix multiplication with high dimensions. Applying wavelength division multiplexing scheme can largely enhance the computation capacity in a broadband manner. In this talk, we shall review our recent progress in photonic memory and neuromorphic devices using different switching methods.
