Microsoft Research has built a prototype computer that doesn’t rely on electrons zipping through silicon but on beams of light. The machine, called an analog optical computer (AOC), is designed to ...

Traditional computers rely on electrons to perform computational tasks, but electrons can never match the speed and processing power offered by photons, tiny packets of light that travel at an ...

Russian scientists have presented a 70-qubit quantum computer prototype developed as part of Rosatom’s Quantum Project, a national programme aimed at advancing quantum technologies.

Joseph Friedman, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Texas at Dallas, uses a probe station to test small neuromorphic devices. Friedman has developed a ...

Microsoft has built a prototype computer that uses light and analog signals instead of traditional binary computing. The system, developed in Cambridge, U.K., is designed to handle optimization tasks ...
