Pitt researchers create atomic-sized one-stop shop for nanoelectronics

Friday, February 20, 2009 - 08:14 in Physics & Chemistry

University of Pittsburgh researchers have created a nanoscale one-stop shop, a single platform for creating electronics at a nearly single-atom scale that could yield advanced forms of such technologically important devices as high-density memory devices and - most importantly - transistors and computer processors. This multitude of uses stems from a technique previously developed by the same team to fashion rewritable nanostructures at the interface between two insulating materials. In the 20 February edition of Science, the researchers demonstrate this process' various applications...
