How to go about making an Ultra Tech Bow

Set aside the arrows for a second (that's already dealt with). What about the bow itself? Is the compound bow the best we can do? What about the super-advanced materials of ultra-tech civilizations, or even more advanced techniques? Silly, I know, but what about a "grav bow" or something else ridiculously anime-esque, like a bow that uses some kind of energy "string" to fire its arrows. Any thoughts on the sort of scale or a source of inspiration on how to handle that beyond "Whatever I feel like?"
