Self‐Assembled Calcite Architectures for Programmable Information Storage

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Programmable biomineralization enables the formation of 3D calcite architectures that encode information through spatially defined refractive‐index modulations. Data are written via laser‐directed mineralization, stored in stable voxelized mineral structures, and retrieved non‐destructively through optical diffraction, offering a pathway toward ultra ...
