Making computer chips smaller and more powerful is not just about clever engineering. It also depends on improving the manufacturing process used to build the tiny circuits inside electronic devices.

Making computer chips smaller is not just about better design. It also depends on a critical step in manufacturing called patterning, where nanoscale structures are carved into materials to form the circuits inside everything from smartphones to advanced sensors.

UNSW Sydney nano-tech startup Diraq has shown its quantum chips aren’t just lab-perfect prototypes – they also hold up in real-world production, maintaining the 99% accuracy needed to make quantum computers viable. Diraq, a pioneer of silicon-based ...

Researchers at Cornell University have developed a powerful imaging technique that reveals atomic scale defects inside computer chips for the first time. Using an advanced electron microscopy method, the team mapped the exact positions of atoms inside tiny ...

European carmakers and parts suppliers have warned of shortages of key chips supplied by Nexperia that would force stoppages at production lines in Europe - Copyright ...

Semiconductor manufacturers are spending tens of billions of dollars to build advanced factories in Arizona and Texas. They’re being cheered on by the federal government, which has chipped in billions of taxpayer dollars to ensure the U.S. doesn’t ...

You know, electronics are getting wild these days. Everything’s supposed to be smaller, faster, and just generally
