New technique allows 20 nanometer (current production state of the art is 130 nanometer with 90 nanometer on the 2 year horizon before this discovery) feature size to be produced reliably with todays mask technology on computer chips. Effectively this means that 130/20 = 6.5 times size reduction of every feature on any given computer chip without new investment. see the story at http://www.eetimes.com/semi/news/OEG20030117S0038 ------=_NextPart_000_002F_01C2BEF3.4D8557F0 Content-Type: text/html; [ AUTOMATICALLY SKIPPING HTML ENCODING! ] Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=20912
