A multi-channel nano-optical device dramatically increases the parallel processing speed

The IBS research group devised disordered arrangement of the antennas to minimize redundancy between the antennas and enabled each antenna to function independently. As a result, the device can provide 40 times wider bandwidth than existing antennas periodically arranged. “We are proposing a new way to connect nanoscale microprocessors to ultra-high-speed optical communications,” commented Dr. Choi.
