Intel unveils silicon laser

From C|net news: “Intel has devised a laser out of silicon, the latest in a series of steps that could take the expense and pain out of optical communication. [The] company has created a chip containing eight continuous Raman lasers by using fairly standard silicon processes rather than the somewhat expensive materials and processes required for making lasers today.”
