Former Sandia National Laboratories postdoctoral researcher Yuanmu Yang, left, and Sandia researcher Igal Brener set up to do testing in an optical lab. A team led by Brener published a Nature Photonics paper describing work on optical information processing at terahertz speeds, a rate much faster than what is achievable today by electronic means.
