High Density Rosetta Archival Preservation Technology

2001
"NanoRosetta archival preservation technology utilizes unique microscopic processes to provide analog and / or digital data, including information as text, line illustrations, or photos on nickel plates. Density can be as high as 50,000 pages per plate."

In 2001 Norsam Technologies, Santa Fe, New Mexico, developed High Density Rosetta (HD-Rosetta) archival preservation technology, which "uses unique microscopic processes to provide analog and/or digital data, information or pictures on nickel plates." Density could be 20 times that of microfilm/microfiche. 

196,000 pages of text could be etched with an electron microscope on a two square-inch plate. 

"Benefits of the HD-ROSETTA Nickel Tablet System:

"Few environmental controls required

"Immune to technology obsolescence

"High temperature tolerance

"Immune to water damage

"Unaffected by electromagnetic radiation

"Highly durable over long periods of time."
