All-optical logic for future computing

Description of the granted funding

This project aims to conduct research on optical computing by exploring the use of novel all-optical gates. These gates will be constructed using advanced 2D materials that exhibit unique optical chirality selection rules. The use of these materials provides an energy-efficient and fast alternative for building new types of optical computers. By leveraging the intrinsic properties of the materials, the project seeks to develop all-optical gates that are faster and more energy-efficient than traditional electronic counterparts. Ultimately, this research aims to contribute to the development of new computing technologies that can better meet the demands of a fast-paced and data-intensive world.
