Overcoming Crosstalk in Silicon Oxide Memory High speed, nonvolatile, low power memory is the goal of a great many researchers as everybody wants greater speeds and less power consumption in computing devices these days. One type of memory that may achieve this goal uses silicon oxide to store data, but has some problems. Researchers at Rice University though have found a way around one of the more important issues; crosstalk. Crosstalk is ...
