Computers come in many forms, depending on your definition. We’ve seen computers and computer gates built out of things as diverse as marbles, relays, and — of course — transistors. However, there are ...
A new publication from Opto-Electronic Science; DOI 10.29026/oes.2022.220010 considers optical logic gates in future computers. If you are reading this on your smartphone, its CPU (central processing ...
Logic gates are the fundamental building blocks of computers, and researchers at the University of Rochester have now developed the fastest ones ever created. By zapping graphene and gold with laser ...
As Moore's Law begins to slow, the search is on for new ways to keep the exponential rise in processing speeds going. New research suggests that an exotic approach known as "lightwave electronics" ...
A technical paper titled “The RGATE: an 8-in-1 Polymorphic Logic Gate Built from Reconfigurable Field Effect Transistors” was published by researchers at TU Dresden and NaMLab. “We present the ...
In a collaboration between scientists from Physics and Chemistry at the University of Bayreuth and Physical Chemistry at the University of Melbourne, it has now been possible to realize optically ...
A research team from Skoltech and Bergische Universität Wuppertal in Germany has created a universal NOR logical element (from NOT—a negation operator and OR—a disjunction operator). According to the ...
How well do you know your logic gates? For their final submission for STEM Projects class, [BKriet] gamified the situation using a Raspberry Pi Pico, some blinkenlights, and a not-insignificant amount ...
Multiplying two analog signals involves the use of analog multipliers, usually implemented by using log and antilog circuit blocks or the Gilbert cell. Today, the most common technique used to ...
