A Swinburne-led team has demonstrated the world's fastest and most powerful optical neuromorphic processor for artificial intelligence. The neuromorphic processor operates faster than 10 trillion ...

“The all-optical computer realizes linear operations, nonlinear functions, and memory entirely in the optical domain with > 100 GHz clock rates,” they say. Their work paves the way for a new era of ...

The team, led by Prof. Mario Chemnitz and Dr. Bennet Fischer from Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (Leibniz IPHT) in Jena, has built a computer that uses light waves instead of silicon ...

A computer in which all internal circuits use light instead of electricity. Long predicted, an all-optical computer is not expected for some time as there are hurdles to overcome. However, there ...

Traditional computer architectures are not very efficient when it comes to the kinds of calculations needed for certain important neural-network tasks. Such tasks typically involve repeated ...

Your computer's brain is the CPU: ... Power connectors also run from the motherboard to the hard drive and optical drives. On a laptop computer, an additional power cable connects to the display.

One of the attractive features of early optical computer mice was their lack of moving parts. ... then a single chip image sensor/signal processor goes behind the lens.

Intel says its work on switching from copper I/O to optical fiber has taken a big step forward in high-speed ... chiplet featuring an embedded Intel CPU in a demonstration that used live data for ...

Such a device might one day become the CPU of an optical computer. Traditional electronic computers are advancing ever closer to their theoretical limits for size and speed.
