In a paper published today in Science Advances, researchers at the University of Oxford have developed a method using the polarisation of light to maximise information storage density and computing performance using nanowires.
The latest study employs multiple polarization channels for parallel processing, increasing computing density through several orders of magnitude over traditional electronic chips.
New research uses multiple polarization channels to carry out parallel processing—enhancing computing density
