(Natural News) Researchers from Stanford University developed a photon diode that could be used for an all-optical computer that uses light instead of electricity for computing. Photon diodes — devices that allow light to flow in only one direction — are ubiquitous in modern electronics and can be found in LEDs, solar cells and integrated circuits used in computing and communications. But most diodes are not small […]

(Natural News) A long-standing challenge in quantum physics has been overcome by British researchers. If their discovery is true, then valuable data can soon be transferred in absolute safety, an article in Alpha Galileo reported. Their groundbreaking discovery involves the generation of incredibly fast pulses of light. Each pulse is made up of a single […]

(Natural News) Perovskites are a class of materials that have come to dominate photovoltaic technology in a surprisingly short amount of time. An article in Alpha Galileo states that their combination of excellent efficiency and affordable cost come from their excitonic properties. “In less than one decade, these perovskites underwent an outstanding development,” remarked Dr. […]
