Magneto-optical traps (MOTs) and cold atom technologies have emerged as pivotal tools in modern atomic physics and quantum engineering. By harnessing the forces produced by laser light in conjunction ...

For the first time, an international cadre of electrical engineers has developed a new method for photonic in-memory computing that could make optical computing a reality in the near future. Until now ...

A new technical paper titled “Integrated non-reciprocal magneto-optics with ultra-high endurance for photonic in-memory computing” was published by researchers at UC Santa Barbara, University of ...

For the first time, an international cadre of electrical engineers has developed a new method for photonic in-memory computing that could make optical computing a reality in the near future. The team ...

Vinod M. Menon and his research group at The City College of New York shows that trapping light inside magnetic materials may dramatically enhance their intrinsic properties. Strong optical responses ...

For decades there has been near constant progress in reducing the size, and increasing the performance, of the circuits that power computers and smartphones. But Moore's Law is ending as physical ...
