"similar brain synapsis... hafnium oxide and tiny self-assembled barriers raised or lowered allow electrons pass... resistive switching continuous range of states... USB stick based on continuous range would be able to hold between 10 and 100 times more information... At point where bridges meet device contacts, energy barrier created, which electrons cross... control barrier height  changes electrical resistance of composite material... enables multiple states to exist... self-assemble low temperatures"
