Indian Researchers Develop Energy-Efficient Method to Create Glass, Could Improve Efficiency of Data Centres

Scientists from IISc, University of Pennsylvania, and MIT reveal a breakthrough with indium selenide that transforms crystalline structures to glass using significantly less energy. By passing a continuous electric current, the crystalline material experiences a “shock” that converts it to glass. The low energy requirement could help lower power needs for data storage devices, potentially advancing phase-change memory in computers and mobile devices. This research opens a pathway for integrating this memory tech on CMOS platforms.
