A team of researchers led by Osaka University and National Taiwan University created a system of nanoscale silicon resonators that can act as logic gates for light pulses. This work may lead to the next generation of silicon-based computer processors that bridge the gap between electronic and optical signals.
Silicon is among the abundant elements on our planetand is the basis for all modern computing. That is, from smartphones to mainframes, all computation happens based on electrical signals coursing…
