Plastic crystals could improve fabrication of memory devices
A novel “plastic crystal” developed by Hokkaido University researchers has switching properties suitable for memory-related applications. [caption id="attachment_9841" align="alignright" width="300"] The newly synthesized crystal is ferroelectric above room temperature (a-b, e-f) and turns into “plastic…
