The Evolution of Crossbar Memory: A Journey from Research to Market
In the realm of electronics, the quest for non-volatile memory is a never-ending journey, characterized by innovation, experimentation, and sometimes, skepticism. This article delves into the fascinating story of how crossbar memory, specifically based on carbon and silicon oxide, evolved from a concept into a market-ready product.
The Initial Challenge
The journey began with a common challenge in the electronics field: the creation of a crossbar memory system. The idea was to develop a transparent memory based on silicon oxide. This new form of memory would ideally integrate functionality into a simple glass surface, transforming conventional electronics.
