World's first reading of digitally encoded synthetic molecules
For the first time ever, using mass spectrometry, researchers have successfully read several bytes of data recorded on a molecular scale using synthetic polymers. Their work, conducted under the aegis of the Institut Charles Sadron (CNRS) in Strasbourg and the Institute of Radical Chemistry (CNRS / Aix-Marseille University), sets a new benchmark for the amount of data - stored as a sequence of molecular units (monomers) - that...
Magnetic particles enable alternative form of data storage
Research has shown that an exotic kind of magnetic behaviour discovered just a few years ago holds great promise as a way of storing data — one that could overcome fundamental limits that might otherwise be signalling the end of “Moore’s Law,” which describes the ongoing improvements in computation and data storage over recent decades.
