Abstract
Physicists at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Hyderabad have fabricated a 'nonvolatile memory' (NVM) storage device whose 'on' and 'off' states can be remotely controlled by varying the magnetic field1. Their findings may help develop future memory devices operated by magnetic fields. NVM, exhibited by devices such as USB flash drives, MP3 players and digital cameras, is a type of computer memory that can hold saved data even if power is turned off. As present silicon-based devices approach their scaling limits, research is on to develop the next generation of NVM technology that will allow storage of more data at less cost.
