Graphitic Memory

Researchers have advanced graphite's potential as a mass data storage medium and potentially reprogrammable gate arrays that will revolutionize circuit logic design. In the online journal ACS Nano, Alexander Sinitskii show lithographic techniques to deposite .10-nanometer stripes of amorphous graphite onto silicon - creation of nonvolile memory. Graphite makes a good, dense, reliable memory that works at low voltages. It is also impervious to a wide temperature range and radiation (space and military uses).
