China has launched a new research laboratory dedicated to photonic computing, a technology that ...

Scientists have created a tiny chip that can generate, steer, and read light-based information all in one device, marking a ...

Want to call someone a quick-thinker? The easiest cliché for doing so is calling her a computer – in fact, “computers” was the literal job title of the “Hidden Figures” mathematicians who drove the ...

In a paper published today in Science Advances, researchers at the University of Oxford have developed a method using the polarization of light to maximize information storage density and computing ...

We can safely say that major companies are interested in 3D printed electronics, at least from a research and development perspective. However, this may be somewhat quotidian, given what may be in ...

Researchers have built a computer that performs complex AI calculations in a single pass of light, completing what today’s fastest AI chips need multiple steps to accomplish. The breakthrough promises ...

Increasingly complex applications such as artificial intelligence require ever more powerful and power-hungry computers to run. Optical computing is a proposed solution to increase speed and power ...

OAKLAND, California, May 31 (Reuters) - Lightmatter, a Boston-based startup using light for AI computing, said on Wednesday it raised $154 million and tripled its valuation as customers in need of ...

(CN) — A silicon-photonic chip that leverages light rather than electricity would alter the speed and sustainability of computing technologies essential for training artificial intelligence, ...

Eighty years after ENIAC helped launch the electronic age at the University of Pennsylvania, a new Penn-led advance points to a very different way of computing. Instead of relying on electrons, which ...
