Not a very useful article. It doesn't even say what method is used to store the data. They mention spintronics, so perhaps it's STT MRAM.<p>Anyone know more?
I'm continually frustrated by these reports. I can tell you about a fun algorithm I came up with in my sleep and maybe even prototyped, but a large-scale app it doesn't not make.<p>How realistic is it that this will become mainstream? How often do chip makers license these types of technologies? How do they determine when to invest in a technology like this?<p>Sometimes I'd rather just read about a manufacturer who has announced a product using a specific technology, at least we know someone is risking their money to turn it into a consumer-grade product.
I think they created a material that would be suitable for a chip of such density. The author seems to have take "with this you could" a little literally.
