Solitons for Optical Computing: ITMO’s Physicist Receives a Presidential Grant
…energy that could be spent of useful work is simply wasted. Some researchers think that transistors have to be replaced by the far more effective elements of integrated nanophotonics. These elements will be able to process data much faster than their electronic counterparts. To create such devices, scientists have to be fluent in light managing dealing with as small …
