Material helps bits beat heat Researchers have discovered a way to shore up magnetic energy that promises bits only a few nanometers across -- the span of a few dozen hydrogen atoms. The method could make it possible to store more than a trillion bits per square inch, according to the researchers. |

Electricity loosens tiny bits Researchers have found a way to make flipping small bits easier. The electrically-assisted magnetization reversal process weakens the magnetization of a ferromagnetic semiconductor's magnetization by applying a pinpoint electric field, making the magnetization of individual bits easier to flip. |

Aligned fields could speed storage Researchers from three institutes in Germany and Russia have found a material whose electric and magnetic domains line up together. The work could bring together the currently separate fields of magnetic and electronic data storage, which would give both methods more flexibility. |
