Transistor lasers represent a unique integration of semiconductor light sources with transistor functionalities, enabling both high-speed optical emission and electronic amplification in a single ...
An international research team led by Skoltech and IBM has created an extremely energy-efficient optical switch that could replace electronic transistors in a new generation of computers manipulating ...
Optical computing - using light rather than electricity to perform calculations - could pay dividends for both conventional computers and quantum computers, largely hypothetical devices that could ...
Researchers at the Technical University of Vienna say they have created an optical transistor which takes advantage of the Faraday Effect. Through the Faraday Effect, the polarisation of light can be ...
In a bid to improve computer power and speed, the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) is experimenting with photonic computing. Professor Ritesh Agarwal from Penn is focusing his research into finding ...
(Nanowerk News) An international research team led by Skoltech and IBM has created an extremely energy-efficient optical switch that could replace electronic transistors in a new generation of ...
Transistors are tiny electronic components that act as switches and amplifiers, and they dwell at the heart of modern technology. In simple terms, a transistor can turn a flow of electricity on or off ...
