What’s Next For Transistors And Chiplets
Sometimes, they use different CMOS technologies. They put them together using different 3D interconnect technologies like interposers, die-to-wafer microbump bonding, or die-to-wafer hybrid bonding. We refer to this as the chiplet approach. That’s ...Semiconductor Engineering: 2021-10-22

DNA Zipper Enables High Conductance in Self-Renewing Electronic Device
Furthering the field of single-molecule nanoelectronics, researchers at the Tokyo Institute of Technology demonstrate in an article published in Nature Communications that the structure of long molecules of DNA can be harnessed to create single-molecule junction devices with spontaneous self-restoring abilities in the event of electrical failure.GEN: 2021-11-04

Calligraphy at the nanoscale
SPL, with its high resolution, is a popular method for prototyping nanoscale structures. However, the method is difficult to scale up and not able to produce multiple copies of a device or structure at low cost. &quot;Although SPL-based patterning shows ...Nanowerk: 2021-10-28
