Self-assembling wires could lead to faster processors

Share

Theres a very real fear that processor speed upgrades will slow to a crawl as it becomes increasingly difficult to make denser chips. Dont tell that to a team of researchers at MIT and in Chicago, though — theyve devised a chip-making technique that could keep Moores Law relevant for a while longer. Their approach produces much finer wires by letting them partly assemble themselves, rather than relying on the very deliberate (not to mention slow) ultraviolet or scanning processes…
