IBM on kehittänyt 2nm valmistusteknologiaa.
Looking ahead into the future five years from now has always been hard in the semiconductor business, but as Moore’s Law shrinkages in transistor sizes get more difficult and the expected proportional decrease in the cost of transistors flattens out, it has been particularly hard in recent years. That is why the breakthrough technology being announced by IBM Research today at its Albany, New York tech center, which shows a 2 nanometer CMOS process etching a real chip on a standard 300 millimeter silicon wafer, is so important. We are surprised IBM still does such research at all, and again, we presume this is a way for IBM to hedge its bets, make a little money, and help the foundry partners on which it depends. It doesn’t hurt to get good PR, either, but it is a little much when Big Blue talks about how it does “hard tech to differentiate hybrid cloud.”
