The digital memory becomes “eternal”

At the Berkley University (California) has been set up a nanotechnology prototype system for archiving , with unlimited duration and without silicon. A recent discovery made by researchers at the University of Berkeley could extend the “maturity” of digital memory media, making them practically “eternal”. Professor Alex Zettl and his team developed a digital memory prototype able to overcome the average length of life (between 10 and 30 years) of existing memory cards, up to one billion years and whose capacity is equal with a TB (terabyte). All without the use of silicon.
