Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory scientists and engineers combed mechanical computing with 3D printing to create “sentient” materials that respond to changes in their surroundings, even in ...

It may seem a paradox, but in the future tiny computers may dump electronics and return to their mechanical roots. At the macroscale, mechanical computers are fussy and slow, but when your area is ...

Gate-All-Around (GAA) transistors will be one of the chip industry’s biggest design inflections since the introduction of FinFETs in 2010. Innovations in materials engineering provide GAA transistors ...

Intel announced a major technology shift today in a move that fundamentally changes how the company will build transistors in the years to come. Starting with Ivy Bridge, Intel is adopting what it ...

Intel has announced its 22nm 3D Tri-Gate transistors, the world's first on a production technology, and with the potential to create not only smaller chips for smartphones, tablets and other ...

The history of electronic design has been defined by repeated waves of major technological change and accompanying business realignment. Many companies have foundered and disappeared when they were ...

Vertical scaling is vital to increasing the storage density of 3D NAND. According to imec, airgap integration and charge trap layer separation are the keys to unlocking it. Inside the charge trap cell ...
