In the last year, Jeong Won Kang and Qing Jiang of the University of California, Riverside, have designed one such system in simulations Nanotechnology, vol 18, 095705. By packing one nanotube inside another larger one and then slapping electrodes on both ends, they propose to store digital information more simply than other nanotech methods. Nanotubes could be used, for instance, as the basis for ultradense and robust storage systems that could replace the flash memory in cameras and the hard drives in PCs and mobile devices.

By packing one nanotube inside another larger one and then slapping electrodes on both ends, they propose to store digital information more simply than other nanotech methods. Each memory element see above would work by sliding the inner nanotube into different configurations to represent or 0..
