Photonic Computing: A Bridge to Quantum Circuits

By David T. Carrott Ph.D.

By tracing the evolution of processors, memory, and coding into multi-dimensional architectures, this book reveals how computing at the speed of light may be only the beginning. From the age of vacuum tubes to the rise of transistors, each leap in computing has reshaped the world. Now, we stand at the dawn of another transformation: computers that process and store information not with electrons, but with photons - harnessing the power of light itself.This book explores the evolution toward photonic computing and looks further, into the technologies that could follow. Readers will journey through the history of processors and memory, discover how photonic integrated circuits are built and measured, and see how coding must evolve to handle multi-dimensional information.The final chapters reach beyond light, offering a glimpse into what the next frontier of computation may hold.
The future of computing isn't just faster. It's multi-dimensional and can allow for simultaneous processing.
