"What role will materials engineering play?"
EVENT ADVISORY: Semiconductor Industry Experts to Examine the Changing Face of Non-Volatile Memory
Applied Materials
3 hours ago GlobeNewswire
SANTA CLARA, Calif., December 1, 2015 - Memory technologies have long been dominated by DRAM and NAND, with phase-change memory representing a niche market and storage-class memory (SCM) a potential new category. The massive amount of data that is being generated every day by the growing number of connected devices is creating a bottleneck in the cache/memory/storage hierarchy, and is driving a greater focus on SCM technology and 3D NAND to improve performance. This transformation of the industry`s non-volatile memory (NVM) roadmap raises many questions and challenges.
On December 8, 2015, Applied Materials will host a forum in Washington D.C. titled, "The Changing Face of Non-Volatile Memory" to examine some of the issues that lie ahead. The discussion will address such questions as whether or not today`s 3D NAND can be improved to remain the leader in the NVM space. If not, what fundamental changes will take place in NVM technology? Where might SCM best fit in a new hierarchy? What role will materials engineering play? What impact will latency, cost per bit, power and bandwidth have?

LONGMONT, Colo., Nov. 12, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Lightwave Logic, Inc. (LWLG), a technology company focused on the development of Next Generation Photonic Devices and Non-Linear Optical Polymer Materials Systems for applications in high speed fiber-optic data communications and optical computing, announced today that it has successfully completed the fabrication of organic polymer ridge waveguide structures with its core material and has now begun passive testing.
Separately, the Company also announced that its organic multi-chromophore polymer material systems have surpassed 2,000 hours of photochemical stability testing.
A ridge waveguide modulator (RWM) is comprised of one or more ridge waveguides that are typically uniform and rectangular structures with either one or two etched ridges to carry a light source. They are primarily used in telecom networks to convert digital (electrical) information into pulses of light before loading onto transmission lines.
Photochemical stability refers to the ability of an optical material to withstand the constant excitement by a light source without degradation of the electro-optical characteristics (R33).
Tom Zelibor, Chairman and CEO of Lightwave Logic commented, "I am very proud of our entire development team. Our electro-optic materials are performing exceedingly well and the photochemical results confirm the overall stability of our material systems. Our newly formed device development team, comprised of a recently hired optical and process engineer, along with our optical test engineer has made very rapid progress and has exceeded our expectations. In addition, I am also very encouraged by the fact that a member of our device team developed a proprietary methodology to successfully segment individual chips from the silicon wafers that contain our ridge waveguide devices.
"The fabrication of these devices clears yet another important milestone and moves us one step closer to our goal of demonstrating that organic polymer photonics can offer the same consistency and reliability as inorganic-based photonic devices. Polymer photonic devices significantly improve data rates at a fraction of the cost of traditional infrastructure devices based upon indium phosphide, lithium niobate and gallium arsenide, which are widely used today.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. & BOISE, Idaho--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 28, 2015--
Intel Corporation and Micron Technology, Inc. today unveiled 3D XPoint(TM) technology, a non-volatile memory that has the potential to revolutionize any device, application or service that benefits from fast access to large sets of data. Now in production, 3D XPoint technology is a major breakthrough in memory process technology and the first new memory category since the introduction of NAND flash in 1989.
This Smart News Release features an interactive multimedia capsule. View the full release here: http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20150728005534/en/

The explosion of connected devices and digital services is generating massive amounts of new data. To make this data useful, it must be stored and analyzed very quickly, creating challenges for service providers and system builders who must balance cost, power and performance trade-offs when they design memory and storage solutions. 3D XPoint technology combines the performance, density, power, non-volatility and cost advantages of all available memory technologies on the market today. The technology is up to 1,000 times faster and has up to 1,000 times greater endurance(3) than NAND, and is 10 times denser than conventional memory.
"For decades, the industry has searched for ways to reduce the lag time between the processor and data to allow much faster analysis," said Rob Crooke, senior vice president and general manager of Intel's Non-Volatile Memory Solutions Group. "This new class of non-volatile memory achieves this goal and brings game-changing performance to memory and storage solutions."
"One of the most significant hurdles in modern computing is the time it takes the processor to reach data on long-term storage," said Mark Adams, president of Micron. "This new class of non-volatile memory is a revolutionary technology that allows for quick access to enormous data sets and enables entirely new applications."
As the digital world quickly grows -- from 4.4 zettabytes of digital data created in 2013 to an expected 44 zettabytes by 2020(4) -- 3D XPoint technology can turn this immense amount of data into valuable information in nanoseconds. For example, retailers may use 3D XPoint technology to more quickly identify fraud detection patterns in financial transactions; healthcare researchers could process and analyze larger data sets in real time, accelerating complex tasks such as genetic analysis and disease tracking.
The performance benefits of 3D XPoint technology could also enhance the PC experience, allowing consumers to enjoy faster interactive social media and collaboration as well as more immersive gaming experiences. The non-volatile nature of the technology also makes it a great choice for a variety of low-latency storage applications since data is not erased when the device is powered off.
New Recipe, Architecture for Breakthrough Memory Technology
Following more than a decade of research and development, 3D XPoint technology was built from the ground up to address the need for non-volatile, high-performance, high-endurance and high-capacity storage and memory at an affordable cost. It ushers in a new class of non-volatile memory that significantly reduces latencies, allowing much more data to be stored close to the processor and accessed at speeds previously impossible for non-volatile storage.
The innovative, transistor-less cross point architecture creates a three-dimensional checkerboard where memory cells sit at the intersection of word lines and bit lines, allowing the cells to be addressed individually. As a result, data can be written and read in small sizes, leading to faster and more efficient read/write processes.
More details about 3D XPoint technology include:
-- Cross Point Array Structure -- Perpendicular conductors connect 128
billion densely packed memory cells. Each memory cell stores a single bit
of data. This compact structure results in high performance and
high-density bits.
-- Stackable -- In addition to the tight cross point array structure, memory
cells are stacked in multiple layers. The initial technology stores 128Gb
per die across two memory layers. Future generations of this technology
can increase the number of memory layers, in addition to traditional
lithographic pitch scaling, further improving system capacities.
-- Selector -- Memory cells are accessed and written or read by varying the
amount of voltage sent to each selector. This eliminates the need for
transistors, increasing capacity while reducing cost.
-- Fast Switching Cell -- With a small cell size, fast switching selector,
low-latency cross point array and fast write algorithm, the cell is able
to switch states faster than any existing non-volatile memory technology
today.
3D XPoint technology will sample later this year with select customers, and Intel and Micron are developing individual products based on the technology.

Corning Grows In-Building Wireless Suite with iBwave Buyout - Analyst Blog
Zacks By Zacks Equity Research
8 hours ago
????
In a bid to expand its in-building wireless portfolio, Corning Incorporated GLW recently revealed that it has acquired iBwave Solutions. The terms of the agreement, however, were not made public.
Based in Montreal, Canada, iBwave provides design-software for in-building wireless solutions. Its design software is used by more than 600 system integrators as well as end-user organizations in more than 80 countries.
Post acquisition, iBwave Solutions will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Corning and report under the Optical Communications business segment.
The Optical Communications contributed 28% of revenues in the last reported fourth quarter. It was down 3.2% sequentially but up 11.7% from the year-ago quarter. Better-than-expected revenues came from higher FTTH sales in North America.
This acquisition will allow Corning to strengthen its position as a leading provider of optical solutions. iBwave’s expertise in inside-building wireless design combined with Corning’s global infrastructure, will enable the latter to strengthen its wireless business, thereby boosting revenues.
Corning is a worldwide provider of connectivity solutions. The company has been supplementing its portfolio with various acquisitions. In Jan 2015, it took over California-based TR Manufacturing, a provider of fiber-optic and copper cable/component interconnects and electro-mechanical assemblies to original equipment manufacturers, further expanding its optical business.
In the fourth quarter, the company reported strong core earnings of 45 cents, much ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 38 cents. Also, revenues of $2.40 billion grew 5.4% sequentially and 19.9% year over year. The results were driven by consolidation of CPM and a slightly lower tax rate, with record sales in the Display segment and Optical Communications, Environmental segments.
Corning currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Better-ranked stocks in this industry include Alcatel-Lucent ALU, Arista Networks, Inc. ANET and Envivio, Inc. ENVI, all carrying a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).
