A new technique developed by scientists at UC Berkeley and University of Massachusetts Amherst may drastically increase the ability of devices to store things.Cal officials called the technique "innovative and easily implemented," on Thursday.The method lets microscopic nanoscale elements precisely assemble themselves over large surfaces.Scientists said the technique could soon open doors to dramatic improvements in the data storage capacity of electronic media.
"I expect that the new method we developed will transform the microelectronic and storage industries, and open up vistas for entirely new applications," said co-lead investigator Thomas Russell, director of the Materials Research Science and Engineering Center at UMass Amherst and one of the world's leading experts on the behavior of polymers. "This work could possibly be translated into the production of more energy-efficient photovoltaic cells, for instance."
