"IBM scientists today unveiled a new chip technology that integrates
electrical and optical devices on the same piece of silicon, enabling
computer chips to communicate using pulses of light (instead of electrical
signals), resulting in smaller, faster and more power-efficient chips than
is possible with conventional technologies.
