007 First Light is the next chapter in the James Bond video game saga, and based on everything that’s been revealed so far, it looks glorious. Combining high-stakes stealth with fast-paced action, the ...

Electrically controlled silicon photonic devices use carbon nanotube heaters to modulate and filter terahertz waves on chip with stable performance, enabling compact tunable components for high ...

As artificial intelligence grows more powerful, so does its appetite for speed and energy. The quest for faster, smarter systems has driven researchers to an unlikely ally—light itself. A new study by ...

A stable ‘frequency comb’ of photons with discrete colours has been generated on a microscale chip by removing copper contaminants from the circuit. The development of PICs was enabled by advances in ...

A popular potato chip company is undergoing a major makeover, due to a concerningly large swath of clueless customers, apparently. On Oct. 9, Lay’s announced its rebrand — the largest in its nearly ...

NTT’s research division has developed what it claims to be the world’s first programmable nonlinear photonic waveguide capable of switching between multiple nonlinear-optical functions on a single ...

Convolutional neural networks, or CNNs, are the workhorses behind many of AI's greatest hits, like spotting faces in photos, reading handwriting, or translating languages. They're masters at pattern ...
