    As we try to fit more and more data on wires, we are running up against the limit of what electricity can do. Wires heat up, and interfere with each other. Fiber-optic cables, using light instead of electricity, have solved many of these problems for long-distance transfer - but inside your computer or your cell phone, the problems persist.
    Janelle Shane, alum to the Jacobs School of Engineering at UC San Diego, shows how lasers could provide the next breakthrough for data transfer. But first, how can we shrink a laser to work on the scale of a microchip?

    I think the biggest advantage of this is the overall inexpensiveness and a network could be fashoned together from just a few people with lasers. This is a great technology that needs to be encouraged!

    Laser integrated hardware will be the next huge breakthrough in computing.

      Aside from quantum computing of course.

      SirRageAlot VII That's a question of which one will come first ;-)

      AvangionQ Probably lasers, but Oxford University students have discovered a method of producing quantum computers that is 99.99% accurate.

      6 year old post... the military tech is moving 100 years in 6 civilian years... StarLink uses lasers already.
