subject: Photonic Computing [print this page] Photonic technology has made its most significant mark in digital communications, where fiber optic data transmission has become commonplace. The ultimate goal is the photonic network, which uses visible and IR energy exclusively between each source and destination. Photonic technology is employed in CD-ROM drives and their relatives, laser printers, photocopiers, and scanners, which are used by offshore product development Company. However, none of these devices are fully photonic; all depend to some extent on conventional electronic circuits and components.
