"JAPANESE RESEARCHERS FABRICATE SILVER ATOMIC SWITCH"
Jan. 6 - A group of Japanese researchers has developed a nanodevice called a quantized conductance atomic switch, or QCAS. With its low energy consumption and high-speed operations, coupled with the ease of circuit fabrication, the QCAS can be used to develop microminiature, high-performance computers, they said.
