Neither classical nor quantum: This computer lets light solve complex calculations
For decades, the solution to harder problems has been ‘build a bigger computer’— but ...
A team of researchers developed “parallel optical matrix-matrix multiplication” (POMMM), which could revolutionize tensor ...
While it's no replacement for either computer, the new device is a powerful alternative for addressing some very practical ...
Researchers at Queen’s University have built a new kind of computer that uses light instead of electricity—and it works at room temperature, stays stable for hours, and runs incredibly fast. The ...

Radical new computer could ditch electricity for light and supercharge processing
Computing is hitting a physical and economic wall just as generative artificial intelligence explodes in complexity and cost. The traditional trick of cramming more transistors onto silicon is running ...
A simple computer that marries the mind-boggling computing power of quantum mechanics with the ease of manipulating light has been built by researchers at the University of Rochester. The device ...
A new type of computer that uses light rather than electricity could perform calculations faster, using less energy and less space. Computer chips are made up of millions or billions of logic gates.
