Researchers have developed a new type of optical memory called a programmable photonic latch that is fast and scalable. This fundamental memory unit enables temporary data storage in optical ...

Artificial intelligence has been bottlenecked less by raw compute than by how quickly models can move data in and out of memory. A new generation of memory-centric designs is starting to change that, ...

This new type of optical memory unit,called a programmable photonic latch, is fast and scalable. It could offer a high-speed silicon photonics solution for volatile memory. WASHINGTON — Researchers ...
