Back in 1965, Intel cofounder Gordon Moore predicted: "The number of transistors incorporated in a chip will approximately double every 24 months." Analogy time: Imagine you had one grain of sand ...
These home made transistors sacrifice a point contact diode to get the small chip of germanium, and form the other two electrodes with metal foil glued to paper. Given that germanium point contact ...
Today, the Intel Foundry Technology Research team announced technology breakthroughs in 2D transistor technology using beyond-silicon materials, chip interconnects, and packaging technology ...
