MIT scientists develop transistor with nanosecond switching and billion-cycle durability
The researchers say it "could change the world"
In a nutshell: Back in 2021, a team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology made waves by creating an entirely new type of ferroelectric material. Now, those same researchers have one-upped themselves by using that substance to build a transistor that utterly smokes the conventional chips powering today's gadgets – with nanosecond switching speeds and incredible durability.
UK scientists achieve unprecedented 402 Tbps data transmission over optical fiber
They broke their own 319 Tbps record set in March
What just happened? A few months ago, scientists at Aston University in the UK broke a world record for data transmission speed. They have now surpassed their previous work, achieving a new benchmark. The team accomplished this feat by constructing the first optical transmission system that uses six wavelength bands. The development could revolutionize internet connectivity, enabling faster data transfers at cheaper price points – provided that ISPs pass on the savings to customers.
