The company, along with others, is pursuing a new paradigm for cramming more transistors on chips—building up.

We all know, at least intellectually, that our computers are all built with lots of tiny transistors. But beyond that it’s a little hard to describe. They’re printed on a silicon wafer somehow, and since any sufficiently advanced technology is ...

As the global semiconductor industry enters the so-called 2-nanometer process era, the actual size of transistors—the core components of semiconductor chips—still remains above 10 nm. How much smaller,

IBM has unveiled a sub-1 nanometre chip design that could pack 100 billion transistors into a fingernail-sized chip, boosting performance.

Simulations show which 2D transistor designs best control leakage as devices shrink, helping guide future chip scaling below todays limits.

A few years ago, we started to see researchers discussing an old manufacturing idea first explored in the 1980s: Wafer-scale processing. The idea of WSP is straightforward: Instead of dicing a wafer into individual chips and then packaging those chips for ...

so i got in this pissing match with my cs instructor. he was telling the class that there are four transistors per bit of L2 cache on any given cpu with on-die, full-speed cache (not actually the subject matter of the class, but a side-shoot due to a ...

What just happened? Researchers from the Vienna University of Technology have developed an adaptive transistor designed to provide more flexibility during run-time. The revolutionary new transistor was produced using germanium, an element on the periodic ...
