Researchers Capture First Images Of Sub-Nano Pore Structures
Ithaca NY (SPX) Jun 17, 2010
Moore's law marches on: In the quest for faster and cheaper computers, scientists have imaged pore structures in insulation material at sub-nanometer scale for the first time. Understanding these structures could substantially enhance computer performance and power usage of integrated circuits, say Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC) and Cornell University scientists. To help maintain the ever-increasing power and performance benefits of semiconductors - like the speed and memory trend descri ... read more
