Photonic waveguides are prime candidates for integrated and parallel photonic interconnects. Such interconnects correspond to large-scale vector matrix products, which are at the heart of neural network computation. However, parallel interconnect circuits realized in two dimensions, for example by lithography, are strongly limited in size due to disadvantageous scaling. We use three dimensional (3D) printed photonic waveguides to overcome this limitation. 3D optical-couplers with fractal topology efficiently connect large numbers of input and output channels, and we show that the substrate's footprint area scales linearly. Going beyond simple couplers, we introduce functional circuits for discrete spatial filters identical to those used in deep convolutional neural networks.
