In order to impruv the intelygnce of the hunttalk forum I, feclnogn have decyded to make you foulks smarter. I will now post a daily thread that shuld make every1 smart and =

todays topac is,

Stacked, Packed Nanowires Hold Triplexed Megadata


A novel transistor architecture using molecular-scale nanowire memory cells holds the promise of unprecedently compact data storage.

Researchers at the University of Southern California and the NASA Ames Research Center have successfully tested a self-assembled molecular memory device they say has the potential of holding 40 Gigabits per square centimeter -- a far greater density than any achieved on silicon.

Furthermore, says Chongwu Zhou, an assistant professor in the USC Viterbi School department of electrical engineering, because of the self-assembly feature, such ultra dense memory devices can likely be cheaper than the silicon flash memories now widely used in digital cameras, "memory sticks" and other applications.

According to a recent paper by Zhou and his group in Applied Physics Letters describing the technology, the density is achieved by the nanoscale (one millionth of a millimeter) size of the building blocks used,

( Ten nanometers is 0.0000004 inch; an average bacterium is about 1000 nanometers long; the smallest known virus about 20 nanometers long).


Full smart storie hear


Share the love, not your wives
 
And for some reason I was thinking Ten nanometers was .0000025 of an inch. What do you know, you learn something new every day.

I can't wait until tomorrows Feclnogn Daily Thread!

Those stacked, packed nanowires sound kinda like the plastic thingy that holds a six pack together. I feel smarter already. ;)

I need one of those...
 
Hmmm???????? Only 10 nonometers long.. imagine that something smaller that Moosie's .. Nevermind.. Let's just say it leaves more room in the ol' soup pot..

Thanks Fecl..

:cool:
 
I am really trying to be smarter by reading this, but I am having trouble. As soon as I read 'Stacked, Packed Nanowires' I keep seeing the word 'mammories' in place of 'nanowires'. I blame this on growing up at the foot of the 'Tetons'.
