Reliability-Aware Bayesian Optimization of 1310 nm PCSELs with FDTD Verification

arXiv:2607. 21772v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Near 1310 nm photonic-crystal surface-emitting lasers (PCSELs) are attractive narrow-beam sources for optical communication and sensing, but their final design refinement is costly.

Will Accurate Fields Mislead Photonic Design? FromGlobal Accuracy to Port Readout

arXiv:2606. 03038v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Neural field surrogates can accelerate photonic design loops, but a surrogate that looks accurate in global field error can still mis-rank candidate devices when the final decision depends on localized output-port readouts.

Constrained Co-Design for Photonic Bayesian Neural Networks

arXiv:2608. 02229v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Classical neural networks frequently produce overconfident predictions on ambiguous or out-of-distribution (OOD) data, a liability that grows with each AI system deployed in safety-critical real-world scenarios.
