Laser Hard Drives on the Horizon
Posted on 6:12 AM by Unknown
Researchers from the Netherlands and Japan have succeeded in flipping the value of a magnetic memory bit without any external magnetic field interference. Instead, they flashed a very short pulse of circularly-polarized laser light at it. This method is about 50,000 times faster than those used in other magneto-optic data storage systems, which means that the technology can enable the development
