Scientists have developed a silicon-less computer. A team of international scientists gave created a computer which uses uses light waves through a single optical fiber. The research team – which is Prof. Mario Chemnitz and Dr. Bennet Fischer from Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (Leibniz IPHT) – have harnessed the interactions of light waves within optical fibers to make an advanced artificial learning system. This takes away the need for extensive electronic infrastructure, which is a change from previous more traditional systems relying on chips with thousands of electronic componen…
