University of Texas creates single atom Atomristor Memory?

[Arthur Hanson]

Any thoughts on whether this single atom memory will become a viable technology in the near future?

Tiny, high-capacity "atomristor" stores data in single-atom switches

Engineers at the University of Texas have created one of the smallest memory storage devices ever, made out of a two-dimensional material measuring one nanometer square. Dubbed an “atomristor,” the device works on the movements of single atoms, which could pave the way for much smaller memory…
