"only simple chips could be constructed with 2D materials like graphene, and wasn't easy connecting to traditional processors, overcome with full-featured 2D silicon-based hybrid flash memory chip enabled by ATOM2CHIP technology... grows memory material only a few atoms thick directly onto a standard silicon chip... new type of packaging to protect fragile 2D materials from stress, heat and static electricity... tested running at 5 MHz... faster, handles complex operations"
