Ya, that's how major universities can make so much money. Universities with discoveries like this are much more wealthy then they lead you to believe.

oops sorry

Will this also clear up blemishes, keep the paint from peeling off my house? Grow hair???

 

[ewood]

sounds good... so 16 and 32 tb ssds?

"...rial to change its properties (called selective doping)"

Selective doping?? gota love collage life!

"Ceramic engines are nothing new.
The issue is that they are prone to wearing quickly in even conventual use."

I agree...but they say that they are now able to give ceramics METAL properties, thus it should perform much better and not wear like normal ceramics.

Also...they do say in another article(i guess could be the source), that: "A team of Indian engineers have created a small chip that can hold 1TB of data, which is more than 50 times the capacity of today's best silicon-based chip technologies." - See:

So I guess that they DID really create the chip. This guy has been experimenting with this technology for years - see:

So maybe it's not so far off...

[citation][nom]Greg_77[/nom]I wonder if this well ever lead to something,or will it be like all those other promising technologies that lead to nothing.[/citation]
@Greg_77: I'm sure you are corrent. It will definitely lead to either something or nothing. Are there any other choices?

About time someone makes a ceramic engine. The oil companies bought many prototypes and I could see this happening to much of the new technology =(

And the new atoms are really that much smaller - the chip is made out of solidified hydrogen and helium cations. Small nuclei, no electron orbitals, much smaller atoms.

The atoms they used for this chip may really be smaller than the ones we use for chips today, but the hydrogen and helium atoms are not 90% smaller than the hydrogen and helium atoms we use today. They didn't create any new atoms.

Good with material physics, awful with math. 50 time more would be 1.02 terabytes. 1.00 terabytes is 50 times as much.
They tried to teach my daughter that crap in school. Think of the degenerate case: 20, now 100% more than 20!

I noticed this about school, too. It made me mad, because I seemed to be the only one in my class who knew the difference.
