Smallest. Transistor. Ever.

Monday, October 10, 2016 - 07:41 in Physics & Chemistry

For more than a decade, engineers have been eyeing the finish line in the race to shrink the size of components in integrated circuits. They knew that the laws of physics had set a 5-nanometer threshold on the size of transistor gates among conventional semiconductors, about one-quarter the size of high-end 20-nanometer-gate transistors now on […]
