Area density

The area density (also known as areal density, surface density, superficial density, areic density, mass thickness, column density, or density thickness) of a two-dimensional object is calculated as the mass per unit area.

Atomic force microscopy

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) or scanning force microscopy (SFM) is a very-high-resolution type of scanning probe microscopy (SPM), with demonstrated resolution on the order of fractions of a nanometer, more than 1000 times better than the optical diffraction limit. Millipede memory and Atomic force microscopy are scanning probe microscopy.

In electrical engineering, a capacitor is a device that stores electrical energy by accumulating electric charges on two closely spaced surfaces that are insulated from each other.

CeBIT

CeBIT was a computer expo which, at its peak, was the largest and most internationally representative.

Celsius

The degree Celsius is the unit of temperature on the Celsius temperature scale "Celsius temperature scale, also called centigrade temperature scale, scale based on 0 ° for the melting point of water and 100 ° for the boiling point of water at 1 atm pressure." (originally known as the centigrade scale outside Sweden), one of two temperature scales used in the International System of Units (SI), the other being the closely related Kelvin scale.

Computer data storage

Computer data storage or digital data storage is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media that are used to retain digital data.

Dynamic random-access memory

Dynamic random-access memory (dynamic RAM or DRAM) is a type of random-access semiconductor memory that stores each bit of data in a memory cell, usually consisting of a tiny capacitor and a transistor, both typically based on metal–oxide–semiconductor (MOS) technology.

Flash memory

Flash memory is an electronic non-volatile computer memory storage medium that can be electrically erased and reprogrammed. Millipede memory and Flash memory are non-volatile memory.

Gigabyte

The gigabyte is a multiple of the unit byte for digital information.

Glass transition

The glass–liquid transition, or glass transition, is the gradual and reversible transition in amorphous materials (or in amorphous regions within semicrystalline materials) from a hard and relatively brittle "glassy" state into a viscous or rubbery state as the temperature is increased.

Hard disk drive

A hard disk drive (HDD), hard disk, hard drive, or fixed disk is an electro-mechanical data storage device that stores and retrieves digital data using magnetic storage with one or more rigid rapidly rotating platters coated with magnetic material.

Heat-assisted magnetic recording

Heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) (pronounced "hammer") is a magnetic storage technology for greatly increasing the amount of data that can be stored on a magnetic device such as a hard disk drive by temporarily heating the disk material during writing, which makes it much more receptive to magnetic effects and allows writing to much smaller regions (and much higher levels of data on a disk).

See Millipede memory and Heat-assisted magnetic recording

HGST

HGST, Inc. (Hitachi Global Storage Technologies) was a manufacturer of hard disk drives, solid-state drives, and external storage products and services.

Magnetic storage

Magnetic storage or magnetic recording is the storage of data on a magnetized medium.

Millipede

Millipedes (originating from the Latin mille, "thousand", and pes, "foot") are a group of arthropods that are characterised by having two pairs of jointed legs on most body segments; they are known scientifically as the class Diplopoda, the name derived from this feature.

Nanoelectromechanical systems

Nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) are a class of devices integrating electrical and mechanical functionality on the nanoscale.

Nanolithography

Nanolithography (NL) is a growing field of techniques within nanotechnology dealing with the engineering (patterning e.g. etching, depositing, writing, printing etc) of nanometer-scale structures on various materials.

Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology is the manipulation of matter with at least one dimension sized from 1 to 100 nanometers (nm).

Non-volatile memory

Non-volatile memory (NVM) or non-volatile storage is a type of computer memory that can retain stored information even after power is removed.

See Millipede memory and Non-volatile memory

Patterned media (also known as bit-patterned media or BPM) is a potential future hard disk drive technology to record data in magnetic islands (one bit per island), as opposed to current hard disk drive technology where each bit is stored in within a continuous magnetic film.

Perpendicular recording

Perpendicular recording (or perpendicular magnetic recording, PMR), also known as conventional magnetic recording (CMR), is a technology for data recording on magnetic media, particularly hard disks.

Polymer

A polymer is a substance or material consisting of very large molecules linked together into chains of repeating subunits.

Punched card

A punched card (also punch card or punched-card) is a piece of card stock that stores digital data using punched holes. Millipede memory and punched card are IBM storage devices.

Scanning electron microscope

A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a type of electron microscope that produces images of a sample by scanning the surface with a focused beam of electrons.

Scanning probe lithography

Scanning probe lithography (SPL) describes a set of nanolithographic methods to pattern material on the nanoscale using scanning probes. It is a direct-write, mask-less approach which bypasses the diffraction limit and can reach resolutions below 10 nm. Millipede memory and scanning probe lithography are nanotechnology and scanning probe microscopy.

Surface micromachining

Surface micromachining builds microstructures by deposition and etching structural layers over a substrate. Millipede memory and Surface micromachining are nanotechnology.

Surface tension

Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces at rest to shrink into the minimum surface area possible.

Thermal scanning probe lithography

Thermal scanning probe lithography (t-SPL) is a form of scanning probe lithography (SPL) whereby material is structured on the nanoscale using scanning probes, primarily through the application of thermal energy. Millipede memory and thermal scanning probe lithography are nanotechnology.

Volatile memory

Volatile memory, in contrast to non-volatile memory, is computer memory that requires power to maintain the stored information; it retains its contents while powered on but when the power is interrupted, the stored data is quickly lost.

32-bit computing

In computer architecture, 32-bit computing refers to computer systems with a processor, memory, and other major system components that operate on data in 32-bit units.
