Image credit: USST. Article by Andrew Paul. Popular Science – Feb 7, 2025. Study: Nature Photonics. Fiber optic cables have a bottleneck problem. Although they’re capable of transporting encoded data at the speed of light, translating the encoded data into understandable information often requires slower, much more energy-hungry equipment. Building off of previous innovations in a field known as passive neural networks, however, a team at […] Click here to view original web page at www.popsci.com
