Vol 2 Chapter 1396: The new generation of photonic computer technology
Chapter 1397 A new generation of photonic computer technology
After visiting the server cluster, everyone can't wait to take the elevator to the "Dao" super photon computer area on the top floor.
From the elevator door, looking at these white light beams, everyone seemed to be in a sci-fi world. Above these white beams of light, there is not a light blue halo swimming over, it is very dreamy.
This is a photon computer? Li Yahong sighed.
Wu Hao smiled and shook his head: "To be precise, this is a super photonic computer. There are a total of 108 columns. Each column contains a total of 400 photon computing modules, which is forty-three. Thousands of two hundred photon computing modules. Each photon computing module can be regarded as an independent photon computer."
Cluster matrix structure, this is indeed your area of expertise. Xiao Ma nodded and said.
"What is its current computing power?" Lao Ma looked at these pillars, and then asked: "Currently, among all the supercomputers in the world, it ranks in the forefront.
But soon, our new generation of photonic computer technology has been developed and is currently undergoing testing. Soon, new photonic computing modules will replace these existing modules, and by then, its performance will far exceed all current supercomputers. "
Hearing him say this, everyone couldn't help but become interested. Everyone has been curious about this commercial super photonic computer for a long time.
What about quantum computers? Xiao Ma asked involuntarily. In fact, many people will ask this question, because everyone always compares supercomputing with quantum computers. And Wu Hao's new type of super photonic computer is often compared with quantum computers.
So when he heard this question, he was not surprised, and then he smiled and shook his head: "And this is not comparable. Their calculation methods are different. The calculation method of this photon computer is actually similar to the calculation method of the classic computer. Although it can be better than the traditional calculation method. The calculation speed of the classical computer in China has increased, but it is still far behind the quantum computer.
Of course, everyone knows that quantum computers also use photons to perform calculations. Therefore, our ultimate goal is to naturally hope to develop advanced practical quantum computers that can be put into commercial use.
At present, we have also made very good progress in the field of quantum computer technology. I believe that at some point in the future, we will definitely be able to appear with everyone in a ‘king’ attitude. "
Oh, then we are very looking forward to it. Hearing his introduction, everyone nodded.
Mr. Wu, can you let us take a closer look at this photonic computer module? Li Yahong asked Wu Hao.
Hearing this request, everyone turned their eyes to Wu Hao's face, which was the voice of many people present.
Wu Hao would not know the little nine in Li Yahong's heart. They have also been engaged in photon quantum computer technology, so he obviously wanted to steal the teacher.
The people present are all big names of Internet companies and technology companies, and naturally they are full of strong interest in this industry-leading cutting-edge technology product. Now that there is such an opportunity, how can everyone not desire it.
But how can such cutting-edge technology steal the teacher at a glance, Wu Hao couldn't help but sneered. But there was a smile on the surface, and nodded in front of everyone's gaze: "Of course, everyone please!"
Speaking, Wu Hao led everyone to a luminous pillar. Everyone can see that there will be some small gaps on the luminous column. These gap lines divide the column into square modules.
smiled at everyone, Wu Hao stretched out his finger and lightly tapped at the surface of a square module.
The square module that Wu Hao clicked turned into light red, and the module slowly slid open, like a drawer.
The people present moved closer and looked at it, but to everyone's disappointment, they didn't see anything special in this cube module. In addition to some conventional integrated circuits and circuits, the most interesting thing is naturally the optical computing module.
This optical computing module is white and translucent as a whole, with green light flashing inside, which looks very colorful.
Looking at everyone's scrambling gazes, Wu Hao introduced with a smile: "Look, everyone, this translucent device with green light is our optical computing module and the core of the entire photonic computer.
Because this is a prototype, it does not use a miniature integrated optical path, so the volume will be relatively large. And our new generation of photonic computer technology will use photonic chips. Compared with this optical computing module, the photonic chip is smaller, more integrated, faster in computing, and more energy-saving.
Moreover, it can also greatly save space, allowing us to accommodate more photonic computing modules composed of such photonic chips in the same space. As a result, the performance of the entire "Dao" super photonic computer will be greatly improved, and the computing speed will also increase geometrically. "
Photonic chip?
Everyone present couldn't help showing their surprised expressions, and the old horse even asked: "Then this photonic chip has been manufactured now?"
Wu Hao smiled and nodded: “Yes, we have developed photonic chip products that can be put into practical use.
In addition to continuing to test and optimize this photonic chip, we have also handed it over to relevant institutes for comprehensive performance testing. U U Reading www.uukanshu.com
Judging from the feedback we have received so far, all parties have given high evaluations to the performance of this photonic chip. "
Mr. Wu, you hid it deep enough. If it weren’t for us to be here today, I’m afraid I wouldn’t know the news yet. Xue Bing tasted a bit and sighed.
On the other side, Tao Zhengyang asked eagerly: “Mr. Wu, will this photonic chip be put into the market?”
Hearing this question, everyone looked at Tao Zhengyang, then turned to look at Wu Hao. In fact, everyone understands the question raised by Tao Zhengyang. After all, none of the people present can understand the troubles and difficulties caused by the "core lack" better than Tao Zhengyang.
Tao Zhengyang and others have made great efforts in the past few years, but in the field of high-end chips, they are still blocked and suppressed by foreign countries.
And this new type of photonic chip across the age naturally made Tao Zhengyang, including Xue Bing, and Xiao Ma Ge and others shine, and immediately showed great interest.
Wu Hao smiled and shook his head when he heard the words: "Sorry, we currently have no plans to make it listed."
Everyone: "..."
