To save you a click, they used new material combination, thin films of hafnium oxide connected by barium bridges, to create a memory storage device that can encode states in between 0 and 1 to increase possible information density.
Also, the horizon line on their logo looked like a hair on my phone screen and it bugged me the whole time I was reading the article. I accidentally clicked on it trying to swipe it off the first time.
Pretty much, but they aim to have a continuos range, so they might be able to keep improving the information density by having more accurate readouts across that range.
Decades ago, the Russians developed a tertiary computer using -5, 0, and 5 volts. It went no where probably because it wasn't much of an improvement over a binary computer.
