Chinese scientists etch programmable 3D photonic neural network in glass

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Chinese researchers have developed a novel 3D photonic neural network that can be programmed directly within glass. This breakthrough utilizes a femtosecond laser to precisely etch the network's structure, enabling light to perform complex computations. The technology holds promise for accelerating AI processing by leveraging the speed and efficiency of light. AI

IMPACT This advancement could lead to significantly faster AI computations by using light instead of electricity.
