World first: 'Storing lightning inside thunder'

In a world first, researchers have stored photonic information on a microchip as an acoustic wave. This allows precious extra time to store, process and then redistribute the data without relying on electronics, which produce excess heat. Such a hybrid chip could have a huge impact in cloud computing and telecommunication centers, which are overheating as we churn through data on our phones.
