A carbon nanotube (CNT) single ion memory (or memory device) may include a mobile ion conductor with a CNT on one side and an ion drift electrode (IDE) on the other side. The mobile ion conductor may be used as a transport medium to shuttle ions to and from the CNT and the IDE. The IDE may move the ions towards or away from the CNT.
