Self-assembled structures offer a unique design concept for optical data storage devices. The storage of digital information using light is a key technology for producing long-term archives of large ...

(Nanowerk News) The total amount of data generated worldwide is expected to reach 175 ZB (Zettabytes; 1 ZB equals 1 billion Terabytes) by 2025. If 175 ZB were stored on Blu-ray disks, the disk stack ...

Optical storage and even DNA storage could be a significant contender for the digital archive market in the coming decades.

(Nanowerk Spotlight) In a world driven by data, the relentless growth of digital information is pushing existing storage technologies to their limits. Every day, vast amounts of data are generated, ...

Optical AI is revolutionizing sensor technology, integrating sensing and processing for efficient, low-power intelligent vision in real-time applications.

Delivering “BLOBs” (Binary Large Objects) such as MRI data carries high-bandwidth requirements. This, plus the ‘networked’ nature of healthcare (campus-based and metro networks) often means that ...

We could soon store 700 Terabytes on a 12-centimeter optical disk which would be equal to storing 28,000 Blu-ray disks. A separate advance with in data encoding could triple storage to 2.1 Petabytes ...

3D surface profilers are in wide use today across many industries due to their ability to quickly deliver critical topographic data, and optical profilometers provide non-contact measurements of step ...
