New ferroelectric transistor's superlative properties could have broad electronics applications

"ultrathin ferroelectric material where positive, negative charges separate into different layers... electric field causes 1 boron nitride layer to slide over a few angstroms. without degradation, switching nanosecond-scale speed between positive/ negative charges (1's, 0's), billionths of meter thick (denser computer memory storage), ultralow voltages, room temperature... single transistor so far, not yet scalable, need to grow these materials on the wafer scale... nonvolatile computer memory"
