Ingenious Method for Logging Into Your Computer May be the Biggest "Little" Idea of All Time

By successfully encoding an 11-character computer password onto a molecule and retrieving the same password later without errors, University of Texas at Austin scientists have developed an ingenious new method for logging in to your computer. Unlike previously established technologies that store data on molecules, the new process is cheaper and less prone to error. The entirely new method of data storage also resists the long-term degradation an…
