A Step Towards Eliminating The Von-Neumann Bottleneck By Co-locating Photonic Computing Elements And Non-Volatile Memory 


A technical paper titled “Non-volatile heterogeneous III-V/Si photonics via optical charge-trap memory” was published by researchers at Hewlett Packard Enterprise. "We demonstrate, for the first time, non-volatile charge-trap flash memory (CTM) co-located with heterogeneous III-V/Si photonics. The wafer-bonded III-V/Si CTM cell facilitates non-volatile optical functionality for a variety... » read more

Mapping Heat Across A System


Thermal issues are becoming more difficult to resolve as chip features get smaller and systems get faster and more complex. They now require the integration of technologies from both the design and manufacturing flows, making design for power and heat a much broader problem. This is evident with the evolution of a smart phone. Phones sold 10 years ago were very different devices. Functionali... » read more
