Description:
This array of molecular
memory elements is made from a com- bination of chemistry, nano- technology
and traditional chip- making lithography. The inset shows a 15-nanometer-wide
palladium nanowire across gold electrodes. At each junction, molecules
sandwiched between the nanowire and electrode store a bit of data. |
