Stanford researchers ve reclaimd braggin rights for creatin the world's smallest writin, a distinctn the univ 1st gained in 1985 and lost in 1990.
Do you know how small is the writing?
dnt get surprised...
Ya.. The letters in the words r assembld frm subatomic sizd bits as small as 0.3 nm, or roughly 1/3rd of a billionth of a meter.
They ve encoded the letters "S" and "U" (as in Stanford University) within the interference patterns formed by quantum electron waves on the surface of a sliver of copper. The wave patterns even project a tiny hologram of the data, which can be viewed with a powerful microscope.
They ve created letters 40 times smaller than the original prize-winning effort nd more than 4 times smaller than the IBM initials.
The significance of the above discovery is that we have finally found a technique to store more information in a very small space...
