Nanotube nonvolatile memory that uses 100th the power of current flash

Eric Pop and his colleagues at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, have created a new type on nonvolitile momory useing carbon nanotube switchs rangeing between 1-5 nanometres switch between islands of GST a phase change material of 10 nanometers , current memory size is only 50 nanometers.

This seems really nice especially for mobile devices, to extend battery life. Not much to say, I mean there is but it is very technical. the link is:
