5D 'Superman Memory' Crystal — Unlimited Lifetime Data Storage
University of Southampton researchers demonstrated 5D optical data storage in quartz glass using femtosecond laser writing — 360 TB per disc, theoretically stable for billions of years. An early result from the lab that eventually led to Project Silica.
Physicists Store a Two-Frame Movie in an Atomic Cloud
NIST researchers stored two sequential image frames — a functional two-frame 'movie' — inside a cloud of ultracold rubidium atoms using quantum optical techniques. A proof-of-concept for quantum memory, storing light itself as atomic spin states.
