The revolution continues
May. 19th, 2003 02:42 pmAnd the commercialization of nanotechnology that I discussed previously continues.
Nantero claims to have a working prototype for a carbon-nanotube based memory faster, cheaper, and denser than silicon memory -- and best of all, nonvolatile. So it keeps its contents when electrical power is cut, like a disk drive. Only faster than RAM.
There are some articles available (that was three different links, by the way) about this, if you're interested.
The part that interests me is that they're looking at commercialization next year. New scientific developments happen all the time. It's common commercial use of them that's truly revolutionary.
