Borosilicate glass offers extreme stability; Microsoft’s accelerated aging experiments suggest the data would be stable for ...

It’s very difficult to create a large piece of glass without flaws. But the researchers knew how to make very small flawless pieces. As long as glass is less than a micrometer thick, it’s almost ...

Boffins at the software king of the world, Microsoft, have emerged from their smoke-filled labs with a piece of glass which they say can store data for more than 10,000 years. In Nature on 18 February ...

The intermediate range order of covalent glasses has been extensively studied in terms of the first sharp diffraction peak (FSDP), but the direct observation of the atomic density fluctuations that ...

Hollow Glass Microspheres are inorganic, nonmetallic spherical materials created by specific processes, commonly with diameters in the range of 10 to 250 μm and wall thicknesses of 1 to 2 μm (Figure 1 ...

Researchers led by Sergey Lobanov from the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences have developed a new method to measure the density of silicon dioxide (SiO 2) glass, one of the most important ...

Microsoft's Project Silica stores gigabits per cubic millimeter ...

Researchers have developed a new method to measure the density of silicon dioxide (SiO2) glass, one of the most important materials in industry and geology, at pressures of up to 110 gigapascals, 1.1 ...
