Ultra-thin ‘atomistor’ synapse-like memory storage device paves way for faster, smaller, smarter computer chips
January 24, 2018

atomistors ft A team of electrical engineers at The University of Texas at Austin and scientists at Peking University has developed a one-atom-thick 2D “atomristor” memory storage device that may lead to faster, smaller, smarter computer chips. The atomristor (atomic memristor) improves upon memristor (memory resistor) memory storage technology by using atomically thin nanomaterials (atomic sheets). (Combining … more…

MIT engineers plan a fingernail-size chip that could replace a supercomputer
MIT engineers have designed a new artificial synapse made from silicon germanium that can precisely control the strength of an electric current flowing across it. In simulations, the researchers found that the chip and its synapses could be used to recognize samples of handwriting with 95 percent accuracy. The engineers say the new design, published … more…
