ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a storage device including a first electrode, a plurality of second electrodes arranged opposite the first electrode across a gap, and a particle which is selectively placed in one of the gaps between the first electrode and the second electrodes and which is movable between the first electrode and the second electrode and between the adjacent second electrodes. A stored state is determined utilizing the presence of the particle.
