Nanotechnology Now - News Story: Carbon Nanotubes with a Memory

Home > News > Carbon Nanotubes with a Memory

April 3rd, 2006

Abstract:
Laura Mgrdichian: Carbon nanotubes have successfully been made into a variety of nanoscale circuit components, including transistors, inverters, and switches. Now, a pair of scientists has made a rough, yet promising, flash memory device out of carbon nanotubes. The device is a long way from a finished, marketable product, but it nonetheless represents a significant step in the drive to incorporate carbon nanotubes into mainstream electronics.
