ARBOK solution

How the ARBOK system creates value

The Optical-Quantum Computer is a next-generation computing architecture based on Digital Light Transistor (DLT) technology — a platform where light controls light with no involvement of electronics, heat-generating circuits, or cryogenics. Unlike traditional quantum systems based on superconductors or trapped ions, this architecture uses photonic quantum degrees of freedom such as wavelength, polarization, and phase for computation and logic. The system is designed for ultra-fast, low-energy operations, operating entirely on photonic interactions within silicon photonics platforms. The absence of classical transistors allows it to bypass thermal dissipation limits and achieve THz-range clock frequencies. DLT enables both binary and multi-valued (non-binary) logic, opening pathways to hybrid classical/quantum processing, and is intended to deliver unprecedented performance in a compact, scalable form compatible with existing photonics manufacturing.

Fully optical logic gates implemented with the Digital Light Transistor, where light controls light without electronics. Computation uses photonic quantum degrees of freedom — phase, polarization, and wavelength. Because there are no classical transistors, thermal dissipation limits are bypassed and clock frequency is limited only by photon propagation. DLT supports both binary and multi-valued (non-binary) logic.

Overview

The Optical-Quantum Computer is a next-generation computing architecture based on Digital Light Transistor (DLT) technology — a platform where light controls light with no involvement of electronics, heat-generating circuits, or cryogenics. Unlike traditional quantum systems based on superconductors or trapped ions, this architecture uses photonic quantum degrees of freedom such as wavelength, polarization, and phase for computation and logic. The system is designed for ultra-fast, low-energy operations, operating entirely on photonic interactions within silicon photonics platforms. The absence of classical transistors allows it to bypass thermal dissipation limits and achieve THz-range clock frequencies. DLT enables both binary and multi-valued (non-binary) logic, opening pathways to hybrid classical/quantum processing, and is intended to deliver unprecedented performance in a compact, scalable form compatible with existing photonics manufacturing.

Applications

Next-generation AI hardware; scalable quantum logic processors; secure quantum communications systems; compact, room-temperature quantum co-processors.

Operating Principle

Fully optical logic gates implemented with the Digital Light Transistor, where light controls light without electronics. Computation uses photonic quantum degrees of freedom — phase, polarization, and wavelength. Because there are no classical transistors, thermal dissipation limits are bypassed and clock frequency is limited only by photon propagation. DLT supports both binary and multi-valued (non-binary) logic.

Key Parameters

| Parameter | Value |

| Logic type | binary and multivalued | binary only |

| Physical medium | photons (coherent light) | electrons |

| Operating temperature | ambient, no cooling | heat sinks, cooling, cryogenics |

| Signal propagation | speed of light | limited by carrier mobility |

| Integration platform | 120–180 nm photonics (existing fabs) | 5–7 nm CMOS (advanced nodes) |
