Quick-change materials break the silicon speed limit for computers
Cambridge, UK (SPX) Sep 26, 2014 - Faster, smaller, greener computers, capable of processing information up to 1,000 times faster than currently available models, could be made possible by replacing silicon with materials that can switch back and forth between different electrical states. The present size and speed limitations of computer processors and memory could be overcome by replacing silicon with 'phase-change materi ... more
