Hard drive technology wins the 2007 Nobel Prize for physics
Pioneering work on magnetic materials in the 1980 lead to the discovery of the phenomena known as giant magnetoresistance. This, in turn, rapidly led to ultra high density magnetic storage read heads that are used in today's hard drives. The discoverers of this phenomena are awarded the 2007 Nobel Prize in physics.
