Multiprobe systems for data storage and other applications

Abstract

Multiprobe data systems have been developed for data storage. The systems can be applied for parallel scanning probe microscope, parallel electron beam exposure system and so on. Electrical recordings to a ferroelectric material and a conductive polymer have been performed. The conductive polymer film used as a recording media is 7nm thick doped polyaniline. The film conductance is reversibly modified by electrochemical oxidation and reduction and this phenomenon can be used as a recording media for rewritable data storage
