RyanJ Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Could the next level of computer technology be just over the horizon? An international research team think they have identified something that acts as a one way electrical valve, a diode... the only difference is that its a single molecule! Diodes are the logical "gates" that make a [acr=Central Processing Unit]CPU[/acr] work, if we can make these smaller then we can make the [acr=Central Processing Unit]CPU[/acr] its self much smaller. Could this lead to the next generation of ultra-fast and microscopic computers? Only time will tell. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2006/04/060403230648.htm - Ryan Jones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
