1.Photonic crystals are also what make these weevils look like they were dipped in glitter.

子晶体也是使这些象鼻虫看起像是浸在闪粉中的原因。

2.So researchers built a photonic chip—a computer chip that uses photons instead of electrons.

所以，研究人员制造了一个子芯片——这种计算机芯片用子代替了电子。

3.Photonic computing, which uses analog light signals, is one of the most promising approaches to addressing the issue.

使用模拟信号的子计算是解决这个问题最有前途的方法之一。

4.But a related technology, integrated photonics, has come to the rescue.

但一项相关技术， 即集成子学， 已经派上用场了。机翻

5.Photonic chips can help break open wireless bandwidth limitations, too.

子芯片也有助于打破无线带宽限制。机翻

6.Photonics essentially allow the internet to exist in the way it does today.

子学本质上允许互联网以今天的方式存在。机翻

7.Known as photonic propulsion, it would use a giant set of lasers to push ships along.

被称为子推进，它将使用一组巨大的激推动船只前进。机翻

8.You're watching me over a high-speed internet, which is dominated by the photonics of sending data over fiber optics.

你在高速互联网上看着我，互联网主要是通过纤发送数据的子学。机翻

9." This refreshing and pragmatic approach to artificial-intelligence hardware that is highly energy efficient makes the most out of both electronic and photonic computing technologies, " it said.

“这种令人耳目一新的、务实的人工智能硬件方法，高效节能，充分利用了电子和子计算技术，”它说。

10.With integrated photonics, modulators and detectors are being shrunk to less than a tenth of a millimeter, and packed into tiny chips that'll one day fit inside a car's lights.

有了集成子学，调制和探测被缩小到不到十分之一毫米，并被装进微型芯片，有朝一日可以装进汽车的灯里。

11.The ordered structures that cause iridescence in opals are called photonic crystals, a kind of crystal where the bending and reflecting of light is happening in three dimensions in a periodic or repeated pattern.

在蛋白石中产生彩虹色的有序结构被称为子晶体，一种以周期性或重复模式在三维空间内弯曲和反射的晶体。

12.That's a tall order, but there's a solution that partners two things: a special kind of laser-based probe called LIDAR, and a miniature version of the communications technology that keeps the internet humming, called integrated photonics.

这是一项艰巨的任务，但有一个解决方案可以让两件事结合起： 一种特殊的基于激的探测，叫做激雷达（LIDAR），以及一种保持互联网运转的微型通信技术，叫做集成子学。
