The deep neural network models that power today's most demanding machine-learning applications are pushing the limits of traditional electronic computing hardware, according to scientists working on a ...

A standard digital camera used in a car for stuff like emergency braking has a perceptual latency of a hair above 20 milliseconds. That’s just the time needed for a camera to transform the photons ...

"Our nonlinear system transmits quantum information with 94% fidelity, compared to the theoretical limit of 33% on systems using linear optical components," said Kejie Fang, an Illinois professor of ...

A University of Washington-led team, with MIT and Intel, has developed a programmable photonic integrated circuit that uses phase-change materials to eliminate static power consumption. The chip can ...

In the increasingly digital world, the demand for faster, more efficient and miniaturized optical devices is ever-growing. From high-speed internet and secure quantum communications to advanced ...

Materials scientists can learn a lot about a sample material by shooting lasers at it. With nonlinear optical microscopy—a specialized imaging technique that looks for a change in the color of intense ...
