Title:
Nanoscale Memory Devices
Abstract:
During the last two years, for the first time since its inception over half a
century ago, the multi-billion-dollar data storage industry has not
experienced any progress in the areal density growth rate. Due to the
superparamagnetic limit, longitudinal magnetic recording which has been the
core technology during all these years is finally facing its end. This
fundamental limit appears to be much below the one-terabit-per-square-inch
mark as earlier expected. Despite such a disappointment with the classical
technology, the demand for more memory is exponentially growing every day.
This talk will discuss the latest accomplishments in the field of magnetic
recording to defer the superparamagnetic limit to higher areal densities.
Perpendicular magnetic recording will be analyzed as the most likely
candidate to replace the conventional technology for the next decade or so.
Furthermore, three-dimensional magnetic recording will be discussed as the
next step in the data storage industry. Finally, protein-based memory will
be analyzed as the ultimate memory at a single-molecule level.
