Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (MPL) and Harvard University have now succeeded in developing three functional components for such chips that are up to 500 times smaller than conventional designs. The researchers used inverse design, a computer algorithm, to achieve this. The results are published in Nature Communications.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bkbc-attribution\">Originally published at <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2026-07-algorithms-foundry-ready-photonic-circuits.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">phys.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"bkbc-source\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Phys.org &#8211; latest science and technology news stories<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Photonic microchips can process data at extremely high speeds and are embedded in a wide variety of today&#8217;s technologies.
