IBM is again taking a giant bet on very small devices with its latest advances in nanotechnology. The Armonk, N.Y., company today said it is collaborating with Stanford University on high-performance, low-power components to help build smaller and faster electronic devices. The partners said their latest research in the field of "spintronics" could lead to reconfigurable logic devices, room-temperature superconductors and quantum computers in the next five years.
IBM has been at the forefront of nanotech development. The company's work with carbon nanotube logic circuits and molecular electronics, for example, is aimed at maintaining its commercial edge through the release of more powerful computers five, 10 or 15 years into the future.
IBM has been taking bold steps lately to keep its position as one at the forefront of technology. Don't count them out of the game. -KingFish
