Abstract
An optical storage device utilizing quantum silos includes a multiplicity of quantum silos in a substrate. Each silo includes one or more quantum dots and a multiplicity of crystals of an orthogonal shape surrounding a quantum dot. The crystals are positioned in an array at each corner, a set of mirrors are positioned at remaining cells of a perimeter of the array and an orthogonally shaped crystal surrounding a quantum dot is positioned at an interior cell. A set of receivers surrounds each silo and points inwardly towards the perimeter. A storage layer is formed by a matrix of the silos with alternate matrix cells marking a position of a corresponding silo and remaining cells transporting data from the silos. A reading and a writing layer are sandwiched beneath the storage layer and multiple sandwiched layers are stacked to form a storage unit with an igniter layer disposed therebetween.
