Photonic chip that 'fits together like Lego' opens door to semiconductor industry
Sydney, Australia (SPX) Dec 04, 2023 Researchers at the University of Sydney Nano Institute have invented a compact silicon semiconductor chip that integrates electronics with photonic, or light, components. The new technology significantly expands radio-frequency (RF) bandwidth and the ability to accurately control information flowing through the unit. Expanded bandwidth means more information can flow through the chip and the inclusion of photonics allows for advanced filter controls, creating a versatile new semiconductor device. ... read more |

Illuminating errors creates a new paradigm for quantum computing
Princeton NJ (SPX) Oct 12, 2023 Researchers have developed a method that can reveal the location of errors in quantum computers, making them up to ten times easier to correct. This will significantly accelerate progress towards large-scale quantum computers capable of tackling the world's most challenging computational problems, the researchers said. Led by Princeton University's Jeff Thompson, the team demonstrated a way to identify when errors occur in quantum computers more easily than ever before. This is a new direction for ... read more
