Scientists have reportedly created chips with memory components just 10 atoms thick, marking a potential breakthrough in semiconductor technology. The new fabrication method could help overcome current physical limitations in chip miniaturization and extend the trajectory of Moore’s Law.
New Approach to Chip Scaling Could Extend Moore’s Law
Researchers have reportedly developed a breakthrough method for integrating ultra-thin materials into conventional computer chips, potentially enabling memory components just 10 atoms thick. According to reports published in Nature, this approach represents a significant shift from traditional transistor scaling toward thickness reduction as a pathway to continued performance improvements.
