A team at the University of Florida has developed a new kind of computer chip that uses light with electricity to perform one ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Unlike traditional computers, which make calculations in a central processing unit then send results to memory, the new memory cells perform high-speed computations inside the memory array itself.

A group of teenagers in Fairfax County have created a supercomputer chip with the goal of reinventing the computer.

Engineering researchers have developed a chip on which both sound wave and light wave are generated and confined together so that the sound can very efficiently control the light. During a ...

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 ...

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.
