Hard drives and flash storage have gotten more reliable over the years, but only on a human timescale. What if we need data storage that lasts longer? Decades? Millennia? The key to that might be 5D ...

Using high-speed lasers, researchers have created "5D" data storage technology that could allow 500 TB of data to be written to a CD-sized glass disc, according to the Optica society. The technique ...

The raise was led by SPhotonix CEO, Ilya Kazansky. Commenting on the success, Ilya said: "We've had significant interest in our pre-seed round and we are delighted to partner with Creator Fund and XTX ...

With any type of creative or engineering project, you have to be aware of your target, whether that's the audience for a joke, the landscape for a building, or the use-case for a piece of hardware or ...

CDs can hold 640 MB of data. A standard DVD tops out at 4.7 GB. And Blu-ray discs hold up to 50 GB. But a team of researchers have found a way to pack 500 terabytes onto a glass disc that’s the same ...

Optical data storage company SPhotonix has raised $4.5 million in a pre-seed funding round, led by Creator Fund and XTX Ventures, the venture capital arm of XTX Markets. The startup said the funding ...

WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed a fast and energy-efficient laser-writing method for producing high-density nanostructures in silica glass. These tiny structures can be used for long-term five ...

The technology is what is known as five-dimensional (5)D optical storage and it is one the University of Southampton team has been pursuing for a while. It was first demonstrated back in 2013, with ...

A new method of writing data onto glass using lasers could store 500 terabytes on a single optical disc – but it takes so long to create that its applications may be limited. The technique uses ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers have developed a fast and energy-efficient laser-writing method for producing high-density nanostructures in silica glass. These tiny structures can be used for long-term ...
