The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

Optical computing uses photons instead of electrons to perform computations, which can significantly increase the speed and energy efficiency of computations by overcoming the inherent limitations of ...

An image consists of a rectangular array of pixels where each one is assigned a colour. For example, here is an image with 9 pixels, each pixel is assigned a specific colour. We can represent this ...

Using an innovative, no-loss technique for combining smaller optical-MEMS arrays, researchers built and fully evaluated an electronically controlled, 240-input × 240-output, all-optical switching ...

Python is convenient and flexible, yet notably slower than other languages for raw computational speed. The Python ecosystem has compensated with tools that make crunching numbers at scale in Python ...
