The transistor acts like an insulator or a switch that is turned off. When a positive voltage is applied to the base, electrons are pulled out of the junctions and they no longer act as barriers.

The team estimates that the transistor is capable of switching 100 billion times without degradation, meaning this concept of selective storage on a chip would essentially become obsolete.
