(Nanowerk News) Information in most computer memories is stored in the form of 'bits' represented by the polarization of tiny magnets on the surface of memory devices such as the computer's hard drive ...

A modified approach to fabrication of magnetic memory elements may lead to a new generation of stable, ultra-high-capacity hard drives. A modified approach to fabrication of magnetic memory elements ...

We will present our recent progress in 1 Terabit/in.2 BPM fabrication. We will report a novel strategy to integrate directed self-assembly of block copolymer (BCP) with nano-imprint lithography for >1 ...

There are two common approaches to increasing the recording density of granular media: one is to reduce the grain size and the other is to reduce the number of grains per bit. Unfortunately, the ...

If you thought recent advances in PC hard drives were something, it's possible you haven't seen anything yet. If Toshiba is to be believed based on its announcements Wednesday at the Magnetic ...

Toshiba has unveiled a whole new sort of electronic storage technology based bit-patterned media, which offers an unrivalled bit-density, and possibly, more reliable and faster reading/writing.

HGST Labs announced today they have combined two innovative nanotechnologies — self-assembling molecules and nanoimprinting — to create large areas of dense patterns of magnetic islands only 10 ...
