Filed under: Good news, Next big thing, EntrepreneursAccording to What's Next in Science, atomic scientists have finally proven the theory that carbon can be magnetized. While this may not sound like much, (and in the very near future it isn't), this development has far-reaching implications in the areas of computer technology, and possibly also in the fight against (alleged) global warming caused by carbon emissions.First, because carbon is the basis for most aspects of miniaturized construction, knowing now that it can be magnetized adds a new facet to material creation and thereby to miniaturized construction also. This means that the very nature of miniature components can be looked at in a new light. Additionally, because magnetization is the basis for data storage as we know it, the world ...
