7nm and 14nm do not refer to the wavelength of the light. They describe the size of the features on the chip (though that is getting increasingly inaccurate).

Either way, Zen chips are already multi die chips. For Zen and Zen+ each die has (up to) four cores. Chips with more cores than four contain multiple dies.
For Zen 2 they are going to be mixed differently, which is what you are referring to.
- atq2119 8y agoMostly correct, except Zen (and Zen+, and Zen 2) has eight cores per die. You may have been thinking of core complexes (CCXs), of which there are two on a die, and each CCX has four cores.
