There are a set of people who are obsessed with size, they just cannot stop researching on newer methods to change it. They have devoted nights exacting the standards. These people are no nymphets, but scientists studying microchip manufacturing. From big league names like IBM, HP, Intel, AMD, Texas Instruments to many research institutes all over the world, breakthroughs have come in thick and fast as they all battle it out to stay decisively ahead and beat the Moore’s Law.
Hewlett Packard and Nanolithosolutions, though, have sprinted ahead and made technology to create atom sized circuitry for their chips. This is a step further ahead from just imprinting nano-sized rubber stamps. By pouring a substrate into the grooves that are created on the mould, HP is making just 15 nanometers wide circuits, revolutionizing semiconductor manufacturing. “We believe this will be an extremely useful tool for academic and commercial users worldwide because it will be about a tenth the cost of current technology,” said CEO, Nanolithosolutions Bo Pi. The costs will certainly come down as once the mould is made, identical intricate wires can be easily mass produced.
