Physicists store information on world’s tiniest computer memory | KurzweilAI

Physicists store information on world’s tiniest computer memory | KurzweilAI: "Summarizing the process, Boehme says, “We basically wrote 1 in atoms’ nuclei. We have shown we can write and read [spin data in nuclei],” and shown that the information can be repeatedly read from the nuclei for an average of 112 seconds before all the phosphorus nuclei lose their spin information. In a much shorter time, the physicists read and reread the same nuclear spin data 2,000 times, showing the act of reading the spin data doesn’t destroy it, making the memory reliable, Boehme says."
