The new solutions in the computer systems emulate human brains.

There are many ways in which the computer can emulate human brains. The neuromorphic networks can begin their operations. Same time at different points. That means the neuromorphic networks must not stop before they take on another mission. And then another thing is that neuromorphic computers can use their calculation power to solve multiple problems at the same time. Or the systems can focus their energy on one single solution. 

That makes that kind of network faster than traditional computers that use only one processor that must stop before the next mission. Another way is to use the living neurons that can cooperate with new microchips. The ability to make neurons interact with microchips is one of the most effective ways to create computers that support large language models, LLM better than modern computers. The thing that neuromorphic networks must not stop before the next mission makes them suitable to control things like robots.

Temperature is the biggest problem with highly advanced microchips.


Before we can create room-temperature quantum computers we must use binary computers. And even if we would have room-temperature quantum computers, we would need binary computer to transmit data to the quantum system. Compact quantum computers require room-temperature superconductors. And researchers work hard with those things. Researchers search for new materials to replace silicon. And the promising thing is gallium nitride. 

The silicone microchips are at the end of their road. New materials like gallium-nitride metal alloys pave the road to the new processor technology. Those metal alloys cause less disturbance to the system. And that allows the system to keep a higher clock frequency than in silicon microchips. Those metal alloys also take less temperature. And that helps the system to keep the temperature low. The temperature causes problems with computers because oscillation disturbs signals.

"If you ever put your hands on a mobile phone charger, they’re warm and that’s the energy being wasted in the silicon,” Rachel Oliver, director of the Cambridge Centre for Gallium Nitride, told Freethink. “A gallium nitride charger will feel a lot cooler to the touch — it’s wasting a lot less energy.” (FreeThink, Silicon chips are no longer sustainable. Here’s what’s next.)

"Gallium and gallium compounds have been used in tech for decades — they’re in LEDs, lasers, military radars, satellites, solar cells, and more — but gallium nitride is currently a major focus of researchers looking for ways to make tech more powerful and energy efficient. " (FreeThink, Silicon chips are no longer sustainable. Here’s what’s next.)

"So why is the microchip industry built around silicon, if gallium nitride is superior in various ways and has been around for a while? The answer, as usual, is cost: gallium nitride chips are more expensive and complicated to manufacture. Getting costs down while scaling up production is going to take time, but the US government is trying to help jumpstart the nascent industry. " (FreeThink, Silicon chips are no longer sustainable. Here’s what’s next.)

The problem in superconductors is simple, how to control the electric flow? And another thing is that until researchers can create room-temperature superconductors those systems require powerful coolers. But maybe someday in the future, we can have superconducting computers on our tables. 

Superconductors are things. That can give answers to the new requirement for new microchips. The problem is that superconducting materials don't have resistance. So when the system tries to load information to the normal temperature systems. The wave that impacts electricity forms between those systems will travel backward in the superconductors. 

Another thing is superconducting microchips. The superconductor technology is quite a new thing. The superconducting materials can act like normal traditional semiconductors. But there is one big difference between those superconductors and traditional semiconductors. There is no resistance in the superconductor. That means things like resistors cannot work like they work in normal semiconductors. 

It's possible to adjust the superconducting ability of the material by using lasers. Lasers can increase the temperature at some points of the superconducting materials. When the temperature rises the material loses its superconducting ability. And that kind of system can adjust the superconducting by switching it on and off.
