Energy‐Saving High‐Bandwidth Perovskite Sub‐Micro‐Encoder.

Optical coding is widely applied in communication and data processing fields due to its practical and powerful characteristics, such as high transmission rate and operational convenience. However, improvements in the loading information capacity of optical encoders always result in increased energy consumption. It is a challenge to realize an optical encoder that combines energy savings, high bandwidth, and miniaturization. Here, both the concept and the demonstration of a perovskite sub‐micro‐encoder with an 84% energy‐saving efficiency and a tunable bandwidth of up to 200 GHz are reported. The way to code the radiative dynamics of the light source allows for the reduction of unnecessary energy consumption from the initial stage through the control of the radiation core. Moreover, the miniature encoder generates code sequences of good coherence, stimulating the development of perovskite‐based optical microchips for ultrafast information processing.
