Getting more from less

Presented by Roshan Achal and Taleana Huff
'15 MSc, PhD candidates, Department of Physics, and Development Scientists at QSi Inc.

"Getting more from less" may seem counter-intuitive, but research at the University of Alberta is making great strides to do just that. Starting with some of the smallest building blocks available-individual atoms-⁠UAlberta scientists are creating smaller, faster, and more energy efficient electronics. Learn about other exciting applications of atomic-scale fabrication that Achal and Huff are exploring including reducing the physical footprint of digital storage by up to 1000 times, allowing us to store more information in less area.
