The Thin Film Polyimide memory array design is solid state, with no mechanical or moving parts
involved. It uses a passively addressed, cross-point matrix. An ultra-thin layer of the polyimide is
sandwiched between two sets of electrodes. A typical Memory array may consist of several
thousand such electrically conducting lines and hence millions of electrode crossings. Memory cells
are defined by the physical overlap of the crossed electrodes and selected by applying voltage.
Each electrode crossing represents one bit of information in a true 4f² cell structure, the smallest
possible physical memory cell. The effective cell footprint is further reduced if additional memory
layers are applied. In the latter case, each new layer adds the same capacity as the first one.
