idea: swap out the passive components like resistors n capacitors of ICs with quantum dot equivalents that radiate waste energy as light rather than heat that creates arbitrarily sizable computation planes


Light is still energy. How do you perfectly transmit the light out of the device?

Why waste energy at all?

The newest generation of computers are going to use photons directly for transmitting and processing data. These are destined to operate somewhat along the lines being suggested except that they won't *waste* energy as much as use it very efficiently and perform the tasks that current machines do on far smaller boards with far less power requirements, not to mention much faster.
