Nanocrystal conductors promise massive 3-D storage

Post by Sabre »

Article
It is more than 5 times denser than 20 nanometer flash ... without 3D stacking," Zhong said. "I would argue the nanowire-based solution is much more amenable to vertical stacking, which makes the technology very scalable as process technology improves. The density can be further doubled or tripled with two or three layers...

The nanocrystal wires are as small as 5 nanometers wide. A nanometer is one billionth of a meter...
Pretty amazing stuff. This will definitely be the future tech used in flash storage.

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.
