Abstract
Vanadium dioxide (VO2) is an interesting material for hybrid photonic integrated devices due to its insulator–metal phase transition. Utilizing the hysteresis of the phase transition in voltage-biased VO2, we demonstrate a compact hybrid VO2–silicon optical memory element integrated into a silicon waveguide. An optical pulse writes the VO2 memory, leading to an optical attenuation that can be read out by the optical transmission in a silicon waveguide. Our on-chip memory cell can be optically written with energy as low as 23.5 pJ per pulse and with a 10–90% rise time of ∼100 ns. This approach is promising for optical data storage in silicon photonic integrated circuits.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
