New Technology of Laser From Intel

Intel Corporation – in their last version of processors and chipsets the work with memory is optimized extremely religiously. There is no sense to enumerate all used technologies and tricks of engineers and programmers, which let to use the bus efficiently – an end-user doesn’t need this information. But the consequence of this know-how became an attempt of system bus over-clocking, which shows that the interaction between processor and memory increases slightly. At least, the performance acceleration falls short of expenses on over-clocking. Scientist and engineers began to develop new methods of data communications – from experiments with superconductors in liquid nitrogen to absolutely futuristic attempts to create biocomputer. But Intel seems to be the first company developed the technology ready for use right now – the question is only in implementation and tweaking. At the heart of the technology there is denial from electrical conductors in favour of optical, and even much simpler – laser. The advantages of optical data communication are known for long time. Good example of this is fiber-optic network interfaces which are faster than any Ethernet. But up to now the main problem of implementation of optic at the heart of the computer with miniaturization of transmitter-receiver devices.
