"NANOTECH: Molecular memory startup snags ex-Intel exec Les Vadasz"
Molecular memory chip startup, ZettaCore Inc. will announce Wednesday (Dec. 17) the appointment of Intel co-founder Les Vadasz to its board of directors. Vadasz was a part of Intel's founding team in 1968 and subsequently managed the design teams for the world's first DRAM, EPROM and, most importantly, the world's first microprocessor. Likewise, Denver-based ZettaCore plans to begin it development work with molecular memory chips before taking on the rest of the semiconductor industry. The company claims that within the decade "almost every electronic device will contain memory based on a new generation of technology," namely its molecular memories capable of storing gigabytes on chips that are less power hungry and nonvolatile.
