Step forward for computing by light
From BBC news: Engineers and physicists have discovered a property of silicon which could aid the development of faster computers. Currently, copper wires transfer information in a computer; the process is slowed down as the wires heat up. “Photonic” and “spintronic” computing is the principle of transferring information by light or electron spin. This new…
