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.

Optical data storage is the use of light to write and read information to and from a memory device. Storage can be achieved by using lasers to pattern a surface, such as on a compact disc, or ...

An international team demonstrates a unique solution that addresses current limitations of optical memory that have yet to combine non-volatility, multibit storage, high switching speed ...
