Thanks to improvements in fiber optics, most of the information that you consume on any given day is transported by light. Quite inefficiently, however, most computer chips need electricity to operate ...

As demand for artificial intelligence grows, so does hunger for the computer power needed to keep AI running. Lightmatter, a startup born at MIT, is betting that AI’s voracious hunger will spawn ...

Scientists have designed a new microchip that's powered by light rather than electricity. The tech has the potential to train future artificial intelligence (AI) models much faster and more ...

We’re getting closer to the point where we can process information on computer chips using light instead of electricity. A new study published in the journal Science explains how researchers at the ...

Becoming the Silicon Valley of the Northeast may have as much power as the computer chips that will soon be designed and developed in the upstate New York region. The recent Chips 101 event, hosted by ...

ALEXANDRIA, Va. (7News) — A group of teenagers in Fairfax County have created a supercomputer chip with the goal of reinventing the computer. “We used to skip lunch,” said Sathvik Redrouthu. “Make ...

This article was originally published on The Conversation. Read the original article. For the past four decades, the electronics industry has been driven by what is called “Moore’s Law,” which is not ...

Researchers have developed a new integrated photonics platform that can store light and electrically control its frequency (or color) in an integrated circuit. Researchers from the Harvard John A.

Computer components are shrinking, but the chips they sit on keep getting larger, creating information delays from one circuit to another. So electrical and computer engineer Kenneth O is creating a ...

New chip design uses photons rather than electrons to perform calculations, and scientists hope to integrate the technology into future graphics cards to train AI. When you purchase through links on ...
