Ultrafast Computing: Light-Driven Logic Tops 10 Terahertz in WS₂

Summary by Phys.org
The future for our computers will literally be at the speed of light. Extremely short light pulses can perform ultrafast logical operations: these are the findings of a study recently published in the journal Nature Photonics. The study represents an important step toward developing a new generation of information processing technologies, potentially hundreds of times faster than what we have at present.

For computers, the future will be, literally, at the speed of light. Extremely short pulses of light to perform ultra-fast logical operations: this is the result of a study recently published in the prestigious journal Nature Photonics, conducted by a group of researchers from the Department of Physics at the Polytechnic University of Milan, in collaboration with the Institute of Photonics and Nanotechnologies of the National Research Council (C…

A group of researchers from the Polytechnic University of Milan, together with the National Research Council (CNR) and international partners, demonstrates that sequences of ultrashort laser pulses can perform logical operations directly in matter. The research, published in Nature Photonics, paves the way for computers potentially hundreds of times faster. The article "New photonic computers: Polytechnic University of Milan and CNR demonstrate …
