Smaller magnetic data memory in the world
Successful scientists from America and Germany in the manufacture of smaller data memory magnetic world has ever known so far. not to exceed an area of byte per this memory of 12 single iron atom and thus the density of storage to about 100 times the hard drive now known as confirmed German Max Planck Society on Thursday in Hamburg which showed that the storage capacity of this new type of memory is magnetic up to the same density of data storage owned by the DNA of a human being. and pointing to this achievement Sebastian said Lott, a researcher at the Max Planck Society, 'in the light direction to zoom in electronic industries, we wanted to know whether possible to access this out to the size of some atoms'.
The lot that the secret that was built by the scholars of this new idea is dependent on what is known as magnetism steel counter, scientists believe it is valid to save the data.
The researchers reported their breakthrough scientific research in the journal Science, the American on Thursday. However, these memory giant is not manufactured except under special circumstances and in the temperature of 268 ° C. In addition, the structure is made atom atom which is not only possible using what is known microscope scanning tunneling as explained Lott.
The type of magnet is traditional, which makes them the compass For example, ferromagnetic, which are made of iron, nickel and other metals.
The data is put in the form of bytes in the computer in magnetic sheets a minute. is that the points of data storage you need a minimum of the distance between them and some of them contrary to the anti-magnetic sheets that can be placed in a more dense next to each other.
