YouTuber Steve Mould has created a great demonstration of computer logic gates using water, tubes, and 3D printed components. This innovative approach provides a tangible and visual way to understand ...

Quantum logic gates between different isotopic species are possible, can be driven by a relatively simple laser system, and can work with precision beyond the so-called 'fault-tolerant threshold' ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Science; DOI 10.29026/oes.2022.220010 considers optical logic gates in future computers. If you are reading this on your smartphone, its CPU (central processing ...

Logic gates are the fundamental building blocks of computers, and researchers at the University of Rochester have now developed the fastest ones ever created. By zapping graphene and gold with laser ...

When you create logic circuits using ICs or FPGAs, you can’t easily visualize their operation without special tools. But if you’ve ever seen a mechanical computer (like the Computer History Museum’s ...

As an electronics rookie, one of the first things they tell you when they teach you about logic gates is, “You can make everything from a combination of NAND gates”. There usually follows a ...

Two independent research teams have each demonstrated collisional quantum gates using fermionic atoms: a long-sought ...

Spin doctors: Menno Veldhorst and Andrew Dzurak with their CNOT gate The first quantum-logic device made from silicon has been unveiled by researchers in Australia and Japan. Their controlled-not ...

Towards ultrafast logic gates (Courtesy: University of Rochester illustration / Michael Osadciw) The first logic gate to operate at femtosecond timescales could help usher in an era of information ...
