Researchers at the University of Toronto have created a laser that could help save the $200-billion dollar computer chip industry from a looming crisis dubbed the "interconnect bottleneck." But this ...

The first semiconductor consisting solely of elements of main group IV has been revealed by researchers. The germanium-tin (GeSn) laser can be applied directly onto a silicon chip and thus creates a ...

A billion operations per second isn't cool. Know what's cool? A million billion operations per second. That's the promise of a new computing technique that uses laser-light pulses to make a prototype ...
