Battery and Memory Device in One

Resistive memory cells (ReRAM) are regarded as a promising solution for future generations of computer memories. They will dramatically reduce the energy consumption of modern IT systems while significantly increasing their performance. Unlike the building blocks of conventional hard disk drives and memories, these novel memory cells are not purely passive components but must be regarded as tiny batteries. more

Nobel Prize in Physics for Graphene research
The Nobel Prize in Physics 2010 has been awarded to Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov. Both scientists managed only six years ago to isolate a layer of graphene, which has a thickness of only one atom.
