Wile E Coyote is the new silicon genius
 

Expect Acme to patent "coyote time"

Wile E Coyote has inspired a new development in silicon chip development, at least according to Nature Photonics.



Boffins inspired by the way Wile E Coyote managed to stay in the air for a few seconds before plunging off the cliff have come up with an idea. If it pans out it could lead to the development of more exciting technologies such as signal modulators for terahertz (THz) beams – which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum between visible/infrared light and radio/microwaves.
