I had to pause and breathe a little, come down from such a rush. I have never imagined I would witness something like this. I am writing this having seen only 5:18 s. Such a wonderful time to be alive. Thank you Branch Education!!!
Some information seems missing: ~ This shows how to bring electrons into the charge trap, but what about making them leave? ~ If turning the gate on reading the threshold voltage, doesn't reading the threshold voltage also write a value? ~ This shows how to write zero or one, but not how to write 8 levels. If you hold the gate, does it increase over time? Or, do you just use a different voltage to target different 3-bit values. Does the SSD clear the bit before writing every time?
1) A negative potential is applied on the gate so that the electron cloud is repelled. This makes them leave the charge trap. 2)The applied voltage must have been less than the threshold voltage(I am not 100% sure on this though). 3)The 8 states can be represented using the level of electron cloud in a charge trap. It would be 000 for a completely empty charge trap, and 111 for a completely filled charge trap. Imagine a water bottle having a capacity of 800mL. 0mL would represent 000. 100mL would represent 001, 200mL would represent 010 and so on. And finally, 800mL would represent 111. That's how it works.
@@10highsky Yeah but we developed this stuff in mere decades and nature took several millions of years to get certain stuff done. That's like finishing college in a century.
@@DrsJacksonn you're saying this is the same as nature ? the mechanics in natural organisms are extremely more complex especially depending on organism to organism but regardless even if you talk about something simple as an egg or plant which grows in a short matter of time is still vastly incredible and complex which we still forget about just as easily

I am in complete awe. So many years studying physics and it didn't bother them explaining me one everyday usage of quantum mechanics. Amazing! That thin barrier acts on the thin line of the quantum and macroscopic world. Just the right width; a little less and its a cloud of propability, a little more and it's a concrete wall. Amazing stuff!

Wow!!!!! I have been in computer sciences since 1972 as a programmer. Being retired for 12 years, this is absolutely amazing! Never would I expect this form of mass storage.
Well at first they take a waver and get a silicone layer over the oxid(dielectric) layer than they put on a layer of Nitrat and one of uv activeted paint afterwards they shine uv light though a mask in a projector (here they get it small) now cleaning and etch away that isn't covert be activated paint down to the oxide and cover it with heat it so a the gate oxide can Form out of the silicone and add new oxide than they polish till they reach the nitrate and again etching away but at first the nitrate than they set the hight of the on top laying oxide with more etching after that they put on paint and activating it on wanted parts and clean it than doting the silicon with p ions than clean the paint new paint and again uv light cleaning and doting but with boron inons cleaning heating for gateoxide putting on a layer of polysilicon than paint uv light and etching adding nitrate etching than oxide paint doting drain and source after that more layering of oxide and nitrate(with sertan conditions) and aching to the darin and source to add a small layer titan Nitrat to secure the doting after that adding tungsten on top polishit down so only the etched holes are filled with tungsten and than they start to put on oxide paint uv light titan nitrate and then they add copper and again and again up to 10 layers with copper
For any structure that is less than the wavelength of light (e.g uv light is 300 nm), u need to use something called electron beam lithography ( use electrons instead of light due to their even smaller wavelength). This is implemented routinely in labs everywhere.
WOW.... JUST WOW. I could totally understand how some people might call this magic. The complexity and layering of the systems is astounding, and that only makes me more curious to figure out how everything is connected. This channel gives me that clarity to see things better, to connect the dots and see things into perspective. Amazing work!

I never realized quantum mechanics played the role that they do in something as routine as writing to flash memory; the fact that people have figured out how to control such a phenomenon to such a precise degree is incredible. Awesome video, and I like the director's commentary lol.

I am currently writing a seminar work for school, chose Hard Drives and Solid state drives as my topic and wanted to have my main emphasis on quantum tunneling and the precise way flash drives work.

In my speech class they taught us that this is a bad way too end one's speech. Could've been better if the speaker just summarized quickly what they talked about and restated their main point of presentation.
This was puzzling me after watching your first video. Thanks for covering this part. Problem is now I'm intrigued to know how these super small structures are manufactured
Lol...with stencils, a UV light and resin. Basically, it's the same process as etching designs on a piece of metal, with a stencil, resin, a UV light, and acid. Except, in this case an extremely detailed and expensive stencil, called a mask, is used.

Took 100 years to make this applicable. I wish those people could have seen, what nowdays is done with their scientific advancements. Also, this explanation is very easy to follow. Thanks for making this :)
To be clear, the same tech is used in productive computing and all sorts of storage. They just talk about smartphones to attract the attention of a broad consumer audience.

@@Fr0stBite5055 nah you can render something of this detail dead easy with tech from 10 to 15 years ago - the real accomplishment is that it's still an amazing video regardless
I could never see how flash memory could store so much information in such a small space if it used the technology of RAM and your tutorial has shown me it is nothing like RAM. This is mind-blowing. I now need to see how they can manufacture an array, 100 layers deep x 40,000 by 50,000. Awesome stuff! Subbed.
The technology is almost exactly like RAM. SRAM is probably different. That RAM is fast and can use a decent amount of power. However slower RAM is more like an array of capacitors yet still fairly fast. This is basically capacitors that is optimized for huge arrays which limit speed to a degree. However the architecture can allow it to be fast via parallel work. It does not need a tape/rotary head which forces a fast serial notion. This can make it more efficient also. Serial notions are easier and can work well for certain things however they have a few drawbacks. Most systems resist change and faster changes more so. Memory is basically a capacitor. Lot of things are basically capacitors. Energy tends to follow a pattern.
@@davidthacher1397 I was referring to the fact that RAM requires a voltage to maintain the charge, whilst Flash Memory doesn't. It's also significantly more expensive with a lower packing density. You won't be getting 256GB of RAM for under 50 bucks.
you know, 8 hours of work at minium wage anyone can have technology this high quality is amazing, in the past people worked for longer than now for common items such as clothing.
Blows your mind while imagining how these scientists developed these high tech Electronics over the years and also how the creators of this video spent their time making these animations.
@S well, I guess I should have put more thought into the implications of what I were typing, but I guess that's true too. Asians are pretty good as well though, they do pretty good when it comes to acting civilized.
I am amazed by the detail of explanation and animation perfection in these videos. I saw two videos and instantly subscribed. This content is easier to understand information than universities provide on such topic.
With the paper references and other online reference, this tutorial just seems like a well explained research paper, leaving clues for viewer to further explore and dive into the concepts!!
Interesting use of subtitles as sidenotes. Though I think deaf might disagree. Edit: Ah, I see there's also regular subtitles. Nice use of alternative English subtitle streams ;)
We live in a simulation and the memory in our phones works by manipulating the physics engine and bugging it out so it miscalculated the position of electrons
Afaik when the data is erased not all electrons go back. Some stay trapped. Over time so many get stuck that at some point you can't tell for sure if it is empty or full.
reading data involves measuring voltage. and 3bit cells have 8 different levels of voltage in a range. as electrons get trapped, the range narrows until the levels become indistinguishable.
Most people have taken technology for granted. After watching this you will respect your smartphones even how old the version is. Scientist and engineers had done a lot of hard work for our convenience.
Definitely go check out Ben Eaters video series: building an 8-bit breadboard computer. He there assembles a simple but complete Computer from the ground up, meaning from basically transistors. I think it's the most efficient and also most pleasant way of developing an understanding of how computers work!
""Does the controller chip 'refresh' the data when you're not reading or writing it to keep it uncorrupted, or do you have to copy it ALL every 8-10 years? I guess there's also correction mechanisms in place in case some bits get corrupted...""
What I find amazing is that a photo, text message or document probably being saved or stored in multiple cells in many layers, would need it's own unique identifier to help the CPU or the chip which would retrieve this information pull out each and every bit located in the different cells needed to make the text message or photo. Because if you have millions (well billions nowadays) of bits making up one photo for example located in many cells, you're going to need an extremely reliable way of being able to find all the bits in each cell needed to make said photo I mean of course the phone does this without us thinking about it
Friend of mine learned this the very hard way, he put a magnet on top of his laptop, unfortunately on the very top of his SSD. The laptop went nuts lol. They had to replace the SSD.
I was either smiling or getting all giddy the whole time in just complete awe and amazement that we can mass produce something this advanced. I'm still giddy thinking about it
why not use punchole cards again, they won't ever get corrupted and they can be edited easily, or for example vhs tapes for storing things in binary, that would last really long too
@/science r/woooosh (I'm pretty sure this is a joke) I'm going to try working out how long the punched card would be though "This IBM card format, introduced in 1928,[47] has rectangular holes, 80 columns, and 12 rows. Card size is exactly 7 3⁄8 by 3 1⁄4 inches (187.325 mm × 82.55 mm)." 80 * 12 = 960 bits, 960 bits / 8 bits = 120 bytes per card 64GB (not even that big for a phone nowadays) * 1024 * 1024* 1024 = 68,719,476,736 bytes, 68,719,476,736 bytes / 120 bytes = 572662306.133 cards, 572662306.133 * 187.325 mm = about 107,273,966,000mm, 107,273,966m, 107,274km, the circumference of the earth is 40,075 km so it stretches around 107,274km / 40,075 km = about 2.68 TL;DR If you had 64GB of data on punched cards and laid them out it would stretch around the Earth 2.68 times
Lmao, I'm just imagining when you want to show a photo you pull out a suitcase full punch cards, drop them in a reader and saying "All right, let's return in a few hours once my photo loads!"
Included with quantum mechanics on your smartphone is the ability to watch a sunset on Mars with access to the world's information that can fit in your pocket.
We use phones everyday but never realised how complicated and how many years of studies it had taken to build a simple smart phone. Magic exists and it's science.

I now need to see how they can manufacture an array, 100 layers deep x 40,000 by 50,000. Awesome stuff! Subbed.
The technology is almost exactly like RAM. SRAM is probably different. That RAM is fast and can use a decent amount of power. However slower RAM is more like an array of capacitors yet still fairly fast. This is basically capacitors that is optimized for huge arrays which limit speed to a degree. However the architecture can allow it to be fast via parallel work. It does not need a tape/rotary head which forces a fast serial notion. This can make it more efficient also. Serial notions are easier and can work well for certain things however they have a few drawbacks. Most systems resist change and faster changes more so.
Memory is basically a capacitor. Lot of things are basically capacitors. Energy tends to follow a pattern.
@@davidthacher1397 I was referring to the fact that RAM requires a voltage to maintain the charge, whilst Flash Memory doesn't. It's also significantly more expensive with a lower packing density. You won't be getting 256GB of RAM for under 50 bucks.
you know, 8 hours of work at minium wage anyone can have technology this high quality is amazing, in the past people worked for longer than now for common items such as clothing.
Blows your mind while imagining how these scientists developed these high tech Electronics over the years and also how the creators of this video spent their time making these animations.
Imagine your school books would have been replaced with video lectures like these.
Then I would have been prepared for all of my classes!
Also, imagine if students didn't have to pay 150+ per book and the videos were free
@@BranchEducation exactly, our education system is seriously outdated.
I love that captions use US forthe transcription, but canadian for explain visuals and extra details. This channel is gold.
"Create and evolve" - that is the true meaning of our life's as a human beings.
unfortunately, that aspect of creativity and evolving is limited to some more than others.
@S well, I guess I should have put more thought into the implications of what I were typing, but I guess that's true too. Asians are pretty good as well though, they do pretty good when it comes to acting civilized.
You singlehandedly sparked my passion for Electrical Engineering. To the point that I'm applying to university to study it next year.
This makes me feel, humans have come a long way.😌
yet all the news talks about it "aNti-RayCiSm"
I am amazed by the detail of explanation and animation perfection in these videos. I saw two videos and instantly subscribed. This content is easier to understand information than universities provide on such topic.
My professor: Probability of electron out of the box isn't zero
Me: That's why I hate quantum physics
Me watching this video: 😶
With the paper references and other online reference, this tutorial just seems like a well explained research paper, leaving clues for viewer to further explore and dive into the concepts!!
To whoever invented these technology.I can't thank you enough foryour contribution.Enabling me to save quite a collection of hd porn.
Lol😂😂😂
I'm dead 🥴
Clean visuals, methodical speaking, perfect teaching. Wonderful video!
Interesting use of subtitles as sidenotes. Though I think deaf might disagree. Edit: Ah, I see there's also regular subtitles. Nice use of alternative English subtitle streams ;)
This is nuts! Quality and amount of information in one video is superb!
I feel like I'm watching interstellar broadcast from aliens who decided to share their knowledge.
P.S. Intel Optane please!

science at it's peak - most intriguing content, thank you for teaching us what they don't teach at schools :)
We live in a simulation and the memory in our phones works by manipulating the physics engine and bugging it out so it miscalculated the position of electrons
No kidding, this is the best animation that I have ever seen on youtube. How can this be free to watch? Jesus...
Well, the imagine if the paradigm were that all information were free... and organized.
hey, why exactly those cells have a limited number of read/write cycles? what exactly happens with the cells?
Afaik when the data is erased not all electrons go back. Some stay trapped. Over time so many get stuck that at some point you can't tell for sure if it is empty or full.
Also the leak is the cause for data degradation/data decay
reading data involves measuring voltage. and 3bit cells have 8 different levels of voltage in a range. as electrons get trapped, the range narrows until the levels become indistinguishable.
@@PelicansPreston777 that's a great way to simplify it
I believe the tunneling can damage the dielectric, eventually to the point where the charge cannot be reliably stored or sensed.
Fascinating. You take for granted how clever some people are that come up with such things.
I'm not saying you should watch this on acid with a 120" projector in a dark room, but like, Im not saying you shouldn't
Most people have taken technology for granted. After watching this you will respect your smartphones even how old the version is. Scientist and engineers had done a lot of hard work for our convenience.
Hoping for "How Ram" & "Processor" works! :)
RAM uses flash/nand technology, pretty much the same as in this video (but how the big picture work is diff)
Definitely go check out Ben Eaters video series: building an 8-bit breadboard computer. He there assembles a simple but complete Computer from the ground up, meaning from basically transistors. I think it's the most efficient and also most pleasant way of developing an understanding of how computers work!
@@Vysair well ram dont use tunneling, also just one level. Also, as far as I know, they dont use barrel capacitors..
@@Vysair RAM doesn't use flash/nand wtf. RAM is completely different than any storage device
@@matsv201 I mean the core technology and yes it's only TLC.
The fact that you can zoom in to the level of electrons is just outstanding, incredible effort!
Imagine going back to the 1970s and tell a scientist that you have a quantum computer in your pocket
this is absurdly awesome, these animations and narration make complex engineering sound understandable even for a hardware noob like myself.
I have a SSD from 2014, I'll use it until it gets messed up just to see this in practice
They'll last a long time as long as you don't write & read a lot. I also asked a related question about it in a comment here:
""Does the controller chip 'refresh' the data when you're not reading or writing it to keep it uncorrupted, or do you have to copy it ALL every 8-10 years? I guess there's also correction mechanisms in place in case some bits get corrupted...""
What I find amazing is that a photo, text message or document probably being saved or stored in multiple cells in many layers, would need it's own unique identifier to help the CPU or the chip which would retrieve this information pull out each and every bit located in the different cells needed to make the text message or photo. Because if you have millions (well billions nowadays) of bits making up one photo for example located in many cells, you're going to need an extremely reliable way of being able to find all the bits in each cell needed to make said photo
I mean of course the phone does this without us thinking about it
I feel like I'm listening to a Thomas the Tank Engine narrator.
I thought it was George Carlin.
Clear, easy to understand explanation & beautiful animation. 10/10, will share
Umm so why can we build something that is only 75 atoms thick on a massive scale but can’t take a photo of it so we can see the atoms?
My brain is astounding after seeing this explanation. Marvelous creation
"I'm speechless, I have no speech!"
The attention to detail that went into these visualizations is astounding.
It’s nice to know that a strong enough positive charge would wipe my electronic devices 😇
Friend of mine learned this the very hard way, he put a magnet on top of his laptop, unfortunately on the very top of his SSD.
The laptop went nuts lol. They had to replace the SSD.
I didn't hear about magnets damaging an ssd before, are you sure it wasn't an hdd?
@@Mart-E12 hmmm i forgot and i'm not entirely sure, i do think it was hdd. Hdd are more prone to magnet failures
An emp would wipe an ssd drive a magnet mechanicaly damages a hdd
A cautionary tale to all those people sending positive vibes.
I was either smiling or getting all giddy the whole time in just complete awe and amazement that we can mass produce something this advanced. I'm still giddy thinking about it
why not use punchole cards again, they won't ever get corrupted and they can be edited easily, or for example vhs tapes for storing things in binary, that would last really long too
But it would take ages to read/write files, and those also require moving parts.
Or write it all out on paper
@/science r/woooosh (I'm pretty sure this is a joke)
I'm going to try working out how long the punched card would be though
"This IBM card format, introduced in 1928,[47] has rectangular holes, 80 columns, and 12 rows. Card size is exactly 7 3⁄8 by 3 1⁄4 inches (187.325 mm × 82.55 mm)."
80 * 12 = 960 bits, 960 bits / 8 bits = 120 bytes per card
64GB (not even that big for a phone nowadays) * 1024 * 1024* 1024 = 68,719,476,736 bytes, 68,719,476,736 bytes / 120 bytes = 572662306.133 cards, 572662306.133 * 187.325 mm = about 107,273,966,000mm, 107,273,966m, 107,274km, the circumference of the earth is 40,075 km so it stretches around 107,274km / 40,075 km = about 2.68
TL;DR If you had 64GB of data on punched cards and laid them out it would stretch around the Earth 2.68 times
Lmao, I'm just imagining when you want to show a photo you pull out a suitcase full punch cards, drop them in a reader and saying "All right, let's return in a few hours once my photo loads!"
This kind of video show us that small things are the most important part of our lives! Congratulations!!!
Included with quantum mechanics on your smartphone is the ability to watch a sunset on Mars with access to the world's information that can fit in your pocket.
We use phones everyday but never realised how complicated and how many years of studies it had taken to build a simple smart phone. Magic exists and it's science.
All the hentai on my phone is stored in a sliver of infinity that makes paper look big? Alrighty then
