Nanomechanisms are employed in nanomemory elements which, in turn, are employable in nanoscale memory devices. A nanoscale particle is enclosed within a nonocapsule to create a bistable device which is both readable and writable in a variety of ways. A nonamechanism for use in a nanoscale memory element includes a first element in the form of a nanoassembly having a cavity and second element in the form of a nanostructure which is removeably disposed within the cavity. In one embodiment, the nanoassembly is demonstrated as a C480 capsule and the nanostructure is demonstrated as a charged hd 60 fullerene molecule. The nanoscale memory devices combine high switching speed, high packing density and stability with non0volatility of the stored data.
