As existing scaling methods for memory and logic (CPUs) come to an end, researchers have been searching for next-generation alternatives to conventional DRAM and circuit design. Phase change memory ...

Phase separation, when molecules part like oil and water, works alongside oxygen diffusion to help memristors -- electrical components that store information using electrical resistance -- retain ...

Stackable PCMs' better bandwidth and greater density means it has the potential to create products that replace DRAM, NOR, and NAND flash memory Intel and Numonyx announced a breakthrough in the ...

Running both phases on the same silicon creates inefficiencies, which is why decoupling the two opens the door to new ...
