0:00:02a decade silicon has been the predominant material in micro electronics
0:00:08but conventional for the can technology fading scaling challenges and will soon reach limit that
0:00:13require alternative solutions cop and could be a key element such future technologies
0:00:20not only because it is one of the most abundant element in the craft but
0:00:24also because it possesses unique chemical difficult and electronic properties that make it very attractive
0:00:31the technological applications
0:00:34most recently cup another chewed and grapheme have been proposed for non volatile memory applications
0:00:40ipm designed to our research in the but the and the published results in the
0:00:45january two thousand and that issue of the new journal of phonetics
0:00:49the results demonstrate that the more carbon also shows promise as another potential candidate for
0:00:56future non volatile memory
0:00:58doctor i sebastian and ipm scientist on the project explains
0:01:03you know demonstrate that all
0:01:21and i think for example
0:01:25which i
0:01:27so no change
0:01:35you know each task
0:01:41well known that the primary i will also for not
0:01:53moreover it should be
0:01:58what has changed
0:02:02that is primarily due to do used rearrangement
0:02:08a within this
0:02:11the work started off at i b m ws that's your week as a you
0:02:15know from the previous european project in which the i b m lab participated in
0:02:20along with clarion a company based in the u k
0:02:24it also drew on the characterization scale of colleagues from i b m research in
0:02:28a button and from the three lights all at the pool share institute don't sebastian
0:02:33comment on one of the price findings reported that are usually small
0:02:40and the traditional media right
0:02:45well in terms of electrical password and the mapping which the c g i d
0:02:50n the lead known protocol memory candidate
0:02:53such as phase change memory and resisted memory load significantly speed up computers
0:02:59support the planet increasing storage needs due to the explosive growth of data and then
0:03:05they will not for applications currently on not feasible
