Researchers of the University of Southampton, in the United Kingdom with Isaac Newton's scientific treatise "Opticks", have developed a way to store data for billions of years, using nanostructured glass. These files are pieces of glass the size of a coin that can resist billions of years at a constant temperature approximately 200 degrees. The researchers claim that the disk are stable until to 1.000 degrees, and each glass disk has the capacity of 360 terabytes.
Kazan, a professor of the University, and his colleagues in 2013 at the Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics in California reported their 5D data storage.
They use fematosecond lasers to inscribe information in nanostructured dots. These nano-size etchings polarize light that travels through the glass. A combination of a polarizing lens and an optical microscope can decode the files.
