information processing

The team’s findings advance the understanding of how the brain processes touch, smell, hearing, sight, and taste

High-performance prototype means chipmakers could now start building optoelectronic chips

A team of New York University and University of Barcelona physicists has developed a method to control the movements occurring within magnetic materials, which are used to store and carry information. The breakthrough could simultaneously bolster information processing while reducing the energy necessary to do so.

Nano-ribbons of silicon configured so the atoms resemble chicken wire could hold the key to ultrahigh density data storage and information processing systems of the future.
