The rapidity and low power consumption of superconducting electronics makes them an ideal substrate for physical reservoir computing, which commandeers the computational power inherent to the evolution of a dynamical system for the purposes of performing machine learning tasks. We focus on a subset of superconducting circuits that exhibit soliton-like dynamics in simple transmission line geometries. With numerical simulations we demonstrate the effectiveness of these circuits in performing higher-order parity calculations and channel equalization at rates approaching 100 Gb/s. The availability of a proven superconducting logic scheme considerably simplifies the path to a fully integrated reservoir computing platform and makes superconducting reservoirs an enticing substrate for high rate signal processing applications.

Reservoir computing is an emerging methodology for neuromorphic computing that is especially well-suited for hardware implementations in size, weight, and power (SWaP) constrained environments. This work proposes a novel hardware implementation of a reservoir computer using a planar nanomagnet array. A small nanomagnet reservoir is demonstrated via micromagnetic simulations to be able to identify simple waveforms with 100% accuracy. Planar nanomagnet reservoirs are a promising new solution to the growing need for dedicated neuromorphic hardware.
We simulated our nanomagnet reservoir computer (NMRC) design on benchmark tasks, demonstrating NMRCs high memory content and expressibility. In support of the feasibility of this method, we fabricated a frustrated nanomagnet reservoir layer. Using th is structure, we describe a low-power, low-area system with an area-energy-delay product $10^7$ lower than conventional RC systems, that is therefore promising for size, weight, and power (SWaP) constrained applications.
Circuits using superconducting single-photon detectors and Josephson junctions to perform signal reception, synaptic weighting, and integration are investigated. The circuits convert photon-detection events into flux quanta, the number of which is de termined by the synaptic weight. The current from many synaptic connections is inductively coupled to a superconducting loop that implements the neuronal threshold operation. Designs are presented for synapses and neurons that perform integration as well as detect coincidence events for temporal coding. Both excitatory and inhibitory connections are demonstrated. It is shown that a neuron with a single integration loop can receive input from 1000 such synaptic connections, and neurons of similar design could employ many loops for dendritic processing.
The feasibility of reservoir computing based on dipole-coupled nanomagnets is demonstrated using micro-magnetic simulations. The reservoir consists of an 2x10 array of nanomagnets. The static-magnetization directions of the nanomagnets are used as re servoir states. To update these states, we change the magnetization of one nanomagnet according to a single-bit-sequential signal. We also change the uniaxial anisotropy of the other nanomagnets using a voltage-induced magnetic-anisotropy change to enhance information flow, storage, and linear/nonlinear calculations. Binary tasks with AND, OR, and XOR operations were performed to evaluate the performance of the magnetic-array reservoir. The reservoir-computing output matrix was found to be trainable to perform AND, OR, and XOR operations with an input delay of up to three bits.
We report the electrical transport in vertical Josephson tunnel junctions (area 400 $mu m$$^2$) using GdBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_7$$_{-delta}$ electrodes and SrTiO$_3$ as an insulating barrier (with thicknesses between 1 nm and 4 nm). The results show Josephso n coupling for junctions with SrTiO$_3$ barriers of 1 nm and 2 nm. The latter displays a Josephson of 8.9 mV at 12 K. This value is larger than the usually observed in planar arrays of junctions. Our results are promising for the development of superconducting electronic devices in the terahertz regime.
