Important step toward computing with light
Research at MIT produces long-sought component to allow complete optical circuits on silicon chips.
Mimicking the brain, in silicon
New computer chip models how neurons communicate with each other at synapses.
Building chips from collapsing nanopillars
By turning a common problem in chip manufacture into an advantage, MIT researchers produce structures only 30 atoms wide.
The future of chip manufacturing
MIT researchers show how to make e-beam lithography, commonly used to prototype computer chips, more practical as a mass-production technique.
Toward faster transistors
MIT physicists discover a new physical phenomenon that could eventually lead to the first increases in computers’ clock speed since 2002.
