Could you clarify the "4 orders of magnitude" comment?
~10 atoms is ballpark 2nm. If you are referring to a length dimension with your comment, four orders of magnitude larger would have some dimension on the order of 20um, corresponding to a 1970s process.
- Retric 9y agoHere is a 14 atom transistor aka 0.5nm, so they may be talking 10 total atoms: https://www.fanaticalfuturist.com/2017/09/researchers-use-just-14-atoms-to-build-the-worlds-first-0-5nm-transistor/ https://www.fanaticalfuturist.com/2017/09/researchers-use-ju...
- thechao 9y agoAlong those lines; yes. Current transistors are (effectively) hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of atoms.
