Low-power computer chip startup Efficient Computer Co. today announced the launch of its new flagship Electron E1 processor, dramatically reducing the energy requirements of general-purpose computing ...

A computer chip that calculates with light instead of electrical current has passed a milestone that researchers have chased for decades: it can run real neural-network tasks, on a sliver of silicon, ...

An experimental computer chip called Ice River can reuse the energy put into it, researchers say. A regular computer chip cannot reuse energy. All the electrical energy it draws to perform ...

A new chip-making technique exploits a material's crystal structure to create nanoscale patterns at room temperature directly onto hard materials used in devices, including silica. The method could ...
