The sub-1 nm chip technology is already in sight, and imec’s ITF World event in Antwerp, Belgium provided a sneak peek into the major process nodes and transistor architectures serving sub-1 nm with ...

Leti’s role regarding new transistor structures will be crucial because industry observers anticipate that vertically stacked complementary field effect transistors (CFETs) may replace gate-all-around ...

A research team at the US Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) has created a transistor with a working 1-nm gate. Lead by faculty scientist Ali Javey, the ...

A transistor with a 1-nm physical gate was constructed with a MoS2 bilayer gate and a single-walled carbon nanotube gate electrode. Excellent switching characteristics and an on-off state current ...

Abstract “Ultra-scaled transistors are of interest in the development of next-generation electronic devices. Although atomically thin molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2) transistors have been reported, the ...

Samsung Electronics is recalibrating its semiconductor foundry roadmap, putting the spotlight squarely on refining its 2 nm ...

The world's smallest 'ruler' can measure down to a mere 0.1 nm—the width of a single atom or as small as TSMC and Intel would like their transistors to be.

The MIT team is now developing transistors with a slightly different configuration that features vertical “nano-fins”. These could make it possible to build more uniform devices with less structural ...

For the 45-nm transistor, Intel is replacing SiO 2 with a hafnium-based material. With their higher dielectric constants, or k values, hafnium compounds form a thicker gate that blocks electrons ...

With over 400 million transistors on a single chip, Texas Instruments' next-generation 90-nm (0.09-µm) CMOS process will enable TI to pack DSP, microcontroller, memory, logic, ...

Researchers at many companies have proposed a host of different transistor structures that can deliver high performance as dimensions shrink to 60 nm and below. At June's Symposium ...
