Informimin
Informimin is a term used in speculative discussions and educational demonstrations to designate a hypothetical mineral that embodies information at the atomic or lattice level. It is not a discovered mineral, and no material with this name has been verified in geological catalogs or materials databases. The concept arose in thought experiments about the physical limits of information storage and processing within solid matter.
Informimin is named by combining 'information' with 'mineral' to emphasize a stable, crystalline substrate in which
Its imagined structure features a crystalline lattice with engineered defect or dopant sites acting as two-level
Proposed readout and control schemes for informimin in theory include spin-based or charge-based encoding, with optical
Practical status: no experimental synthesis or discovery has been demonstrated. The idea is used mainly as
