(TECH) Israeli Scientists Increase Computer Memory Capabilities

"Hebrew University researchers claim they’ve found a way to make digital memory chips even smaller.

Israeli scientists believe they have discovered a way to reduce the material size of a computer’s memory, while increasing its capacity using protein from the poplar tree.

Over the last decade memory chips used in everyday technology have become smaller and smaller, while the necessary capacity has been increasing. In the past, industry experts warned that physically there is a limit to how tiny a memory chip could be using current standard manufacturing methods."
