First All-Optical Photonic Switch U. Penn. News, Sept 7, 2012
from [1]: "Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania have made an important advance in this frontier of photonics, fashioning the first all-optical photonic switch out of cadmium sulfide nanowires. Moreover, they combined these photonic switches into a logic gate, a fundamental component of computer chips that process information. [...] We see a future where ‘consumer electronics’ become ‘consumer photonics’,[...] and this study shows that is possible. "
