> There’s numerous amazing ferroelectrics that you can grow tons of that would absolutely spank NAND flash. However, they’re not silicon fab, so nobody makes them.

So why doesn't somebody new start making them and put all the current flash producers out of business?



Silicon technology is already so efficient it would be hugely expensive to compete with it. No one has the money or risk appetite to try.


I’d love a reference or two to read on ferroelectric memory tech…


You might just look for work on HfO2
