Next Generation High Speed Computing Using Photonic Based Technolog
  In the present era of technology computer has facilitated the human life up to a great extent. The speed of computation has raised to astonish level but the pace of development of other technologies which have core dependency over computers have raised relatively exponentially huge, though the computer speed of computation is very fast with respect to human abilities but still it has to be increased a lot more to meet the future requirements. We have pushed electrons to their maximum limit to a stage that nothing further could be expected from electrons. Alternately one can use photon to replace the relatively sluggish electrons. An alternate that posses all feature that an electron holds but only millions of time faster and with a far more reliability in one way or the other stretching the computers speed to a stage that no one would have ever even wonder. In this research paper the photonics implementations in computation industry have been presented along with its scope as an alternate to electron with comparative study of electron and photon under the computation perspective, generalized working of silicon based optical computers, the application of photons and their crucial role in the upcoming times.
