Computer memory takes a spin: Physicists read data after storing them in atomic nuclei for 112 seconds |
December 17, 2010
Physicists have stored information for 112 seconds in what may become the world's tiniest computer memory: magnetic "spins" in the centers or nuclei of atoms. Then the physicists retrieved and read the data electronically -- a big step toward using the new kind of memory for both faster conventional and superfast "quantum" computers.
