Power Without Electricity: Nanodevice For Optical Computers Developed at ITMO
… transfer, photons are ideal: light can travel over tens and even hundreds of kilometers without fading or distortion. And this is exactly why optical computers are not just a scientific endeavor, but an actual necessity. “To develop a functional optical computer, we need to replace every part of a conventional PC with its optical counterpart. In our project, we…
