A new paper in Nature: Nanotechnology titled “Spectroscopy of few-electron single-crystal silicon quantum dots” shows the result of a 4nm fabrication utilizing phosphorous/silicon replacement in modeling a seven atom transistor: “The quantum dot is defined by atomically abrupt changes in the density of phosphorus dopant atoms, and the resulting confinement produces novel effects associated with [...]
Memristor related papers and abstracts from the 20th Great Lakes symposium on VLSI (May 16 – 18, 2010): Design considerations for variation tolerant multilevel CMOS/Nano memristor memory (Harika Manem, Garrett S. Rose, Xiaoli He, Wei Wang) examines, in part, unfolded crossbar memory noise margins and power consumption: “This work analyzes the design constraints for nanoscale [...]
A new paper from IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON VERY LARGE SCALE INTEGRATION (VLSI) SYSTEMS, VOL.X, NO.X, 201X titled “Memristor MOS Content Addressable Memory (MCAM): Hybrid Architecture for Future High Performance Search Engines” details the results of recent simulation matrices run on MCAM memristor models using a behavioral modeling approach; results on low power consumption in memory [...]
Going even more Nano than Nano allows, the DZero project at the Fermilab Tevatron has found a slight statistical variation in favor of matter over antimatter, showing even more evidence pointing towards CP Violation: Sifting data from collisions of protons and antiprotons at Fermilab’s Tevatron, which until last winter was the most powerful particle accelerator [...]
The Nanotechnology Journal Volume 21, Number 23 is out online today with the short paper by Stan Williams et al submitted this last March that details more specifics about HP Labs early attempts at a nonvolatile, memristor based flip-flop latch circuit: We describe the implementation of a nonvolatile synchronous flip-flop circuit that uses a nanoscale [...]
Bit-tech has a short interclip with AMD spokesperson Bob Grim on AMD’s attempts at GPGPU’s, vis a vis the upcoming Fusion, supposedly on target to ship first quarter 2011: “There was a fair bit of engineering work involved too, but we just have a tradition of building a piece of silicon from the ground up, [...]
Emerging technology provides a unique opportunity to introduce science within education. The development of Memristors, the fourth passive component type after resistors, capacitors and inductors, along with other Solid State memory devices, takes us one step further to creating cheap, powerful, distributed solutions for sensing and processing.
