Silicon Valley startup Lightmatter revealed on Wednesday it had developed a new type of computer chip that could both speed ...

Two companies have announced photonic devices that could solve specific real-world problems faster and with less energy than conventional computers.

However, converting photons into electrical signals can slow down processing times since light operates at higher speeds.

Computers that use photons rather than electrons to manipulate data promise greater speed and energy efficiency, and the ...
