Japan develops a new "laser" that does not use light

A groundbreaking development has emerged from the research team led by Professor Yamamoto Hiji at Japan's National Institute of Informatics. They have successfully created a revolutionary "laser" that doesn't rely on light. Instead, the team utilized "excited particles"—tiny entities formed when electrons leave holes in a semiconductor—and used their interactions to generate a laser-like effect. This new approach eliminates the need for traditional light waves and significantly reduces power consumption. The energy required for this novel "laser" is less than 1% of that needed by conventional lasers, making it an extremely efficient alternative. The technology has potential applications in large-scale integrated circuits (LSIs), where it could serve as a medium for information transfer. By replacing traditional electron-based signal transmission with this new method, future electronic devices may become far more energy-efficient. The findings were published in the prestigious British journal *Nature*, highlighting the importance of the discovery. The research involved using electromagnetic waves with a wavelength of 800 nm to interact with the excited particles. These particles are incredibly light—only a thousandth the mass of a hydrogen atom—and exhibit wave-like properties. By carefully tuning the interaction between the electromagnetic waves and the particles, the team was able to create a stable and efficient laser-like emission. In current integrated circuits, electrons in metal wiring carry signals. However, as demand for lower power consumption grows, researchers worldwide are exploring alternatives, including the use of light-based systems. This new "laser" developed by Yamamoto’s team represents a major step forward, offering a more advanced and energy-efficient solution for signal transmission in microelectronics. This innovation not only paves the way for next-generation computing but also holds great promise for reducing the energy footprint of electronic devices in the future. It's a significant milestone in the ongoing quest for smarter, greener technology.
