Research theme
Development of practical Single Molecule Electret (SME) memory for low-power computers
Business Plan
In the highly information-driven society of the future, reducing computer power consumption is an urgent social issue. As the solution, next-generation non-volatile memory has been proposed to replace volatile memory with high power consumption, but it has not yet been realized. We aim the practical application of this next-generation non-volatile memory by using a Single Molecule Electret, an innovative memory material.
Research Outline
In this R&D effort, we will divide the technical aspects of Single Molecule Electret into three target : “materials,” “thin film,” and “devices.”
- [1] Scale-up study of Single Molecule Electret materials
- [2] Densification of Single Molecule Electret thin films
- [3] Prototyping and evaluation of Single Molecule Electret memory devices
