- runeks 9y agoExcuse my cynicism, but won't it just be an incremental improvement, like for all previous years (~2x as many transistors per square millimeter)?
- candiodari 9y agoIn theory, it's squared, not linear. So you should have ~4x as many transistors.
- Animats 9y agoASML point of view: "Litho today, litho tomorrow." On to 5nm! On to 2nm! That's 10 silicon atoms across.

- 6nf 9y ago2nm is only 4 silicon atoms in a crystal matrix
- tutanchamun 9y agoI wonder of there are actually structures as small as this in the CPUs? Even in Intels 14nm process there are many things that are 26nm and upwards.
