信息存在分子里计算机芯片要求将更多的信息储存在更小的空间里。科学家一直试图用几个分子储存信息,但必须要求存储器可以在两种状态间变换,表示开关并可以读写。加州大学鹅湾分校的研究者将一种感光分子和一种荧光分子绑在一起,使这对分子具有作为存储器单元的能力:用530纳米波长的光照射,可以开;用400纳米波长的光照射,可以关;用650纳米波长的光照射,它可以发射700纳米的光供读写。用这种可以储存上千GB内容的分子存储器制作的设备预计可以在5～7年内上市。
Informational molecules Computer chips require that more information be stored in a smaller space. Scientists have been trying to store information with a few molecules, but must require memory can be changed between the two states, that switch can be read and write. Researchers at the University of California, Goose Bay, tied a light-sensitive molecule with a fluorescent molecule, giving the pair the ability to act as memory cells: illuminated with light at 530 nanometers and turned on; illuminated with light at 400 nanometers Irradiation can be off; with 650 nm light, it can emit 700 nm light for reading and writing. Equipment made using this type of molecular memory that holds up to 1,000 GB of content is expected to be available in 5-7 years.
