Scientists at Microsoft Research in the United States have demonstrated a system called Silica for writing and reading ...

Microsoft has advanced its Project Silica to the point where it can store data for up to 10,000 years on the type of ...

Project Silica introduces new techniques for encoding data in borosilicate glass, as described in the journal Nature. These ...

This initiative, known as Project Silica, encodes data on glass plates reminiscent of early photography negatives. In a study ...

For roughly a decade, Microsoft has been perfecting a high-density storage technology that uses glass, lasers, and cameras, ...

For the demonstration in the paper, the team inscribed 301 voxel layers, but the glass chip has the capacity to store 4.8 ...

To store information, the laser cuts voxels inside the glass. A voxel is like a pixel, but it stores information in three dimensions, like a cube, instead of in two dimensions. The video game ...

In a new study, scientists at Microsoft Research have shown that they can write information into a lump of borosilicate glass. Their calculations suggest the data trapped inside would be stable for at ...

Microsoft’s Project Silica can store 5TB of data on glass for 10,000 years, offering a durable, energy-free solution to prevent data rot.

It may have half the capacity of fused silica glass, but is faster and much cheaper Microsoft this week detailed new research aimed at preserving data in borosilicate glass plates for thousands of ...

Thousands of years from now, what will remain of our digital era? The ever-growing vastness of human knowledge is no longer ...
