A nano-structured glass disc can store 5-dimensional digital data for billions of year, researchers at the University of Southampton said.
Scientists have created a solid-state memory technology that allows for high-density storage with a minimum incidence of computer errors.
DVDs and Blu-ray disks contain so-called phase-change materials that morph from one atomic state to another after being struck with pulses of laser light.
