Then, once the size of MIT's diode for light is scaled down -- it's currently around 400nm long, some 20 times larger than a transistor -- we might begin to see photonic circuits in computers.

The effect of silicon avalanche diodes (SADs) on the behavior of fuses in low-voltage (LV) power networks is shown, as well as the effect of the fuses on the energy dissipation in the SADs. In order ...
