Crystals of certain common minerals, like flint, which is a form of quartz, tend to trap electrons over time.

某些常见矿物的晶体， 如石英的一种形式燧石，随着时间的推移往往会捕获电子。

But instead of being controlled by a current or a flow of electrons, each transistor basically trapped a single electron and stored it spins as information.

但不是由电流或电子流控制，每个晶体管基本上捕获一个电子并将其作为信息旋转存储。

It traps electrons, or charges for years on end, and in order to read the information, the electron charge level is measured, and the amount of charge on the charge trap is unchanged.

它会连续多年捕获电子或电荷，为了读取信息，需要测量电子电荷水平，而电荷陷阱上的电荷量是不变的。
