[Wafers] – Engineers grow ‘perfect’ atom-thin materials on industrial silicon wafers
14 novembre 2023
True to Moore’s Law, the number of transistors on a microchip has doubled every year since the 1960s. But this trajectory is predicted to soon plateau because silicon — the backbone of modern transistors — loses its electrical properties once devices made from this material dip below a certain size.
