A new era in computing is emerging as researchers overcome the limitations of Moore’s Law through photonics.
This cutting-edge approach boosts processing speeds and slashes energy use, potentially revolutionizing AI and machine learning applications.
Photonics: A Potential Game-Changer
For decades, computer and smartphone circuits have steadily become smaller and more powerful, following the trend known as Moore’s Law. However, this era of consistent progress is nearing its end due to physical limits, such as the maximum number of transistors that can fit on a chip and the heat generated by densely packed components. As a result, the pace of performance improvements is slowing,…
