Moore's Law may work for years to come due to quantum anomaly
- Symmetry 15y agoHonesty, its not conductivity that's the problem. What we really need are transistors that have a big enough difference in conductance between their on and off states.
- Panoramix 15y agoAlso the thermal issues are relevant. It is a common misconception that quantum effects are the limiting factor in Moore's law.
- martinkallstrom 15y ago"Scientists have predicted that it may not be long before [the transistors'] performance is compromised by unpredictable quantum effects" It is comforting to hear that the unpredictable quantum effects were, in fact, unpredictable. Science wins even when it fails.
- ynd 15y agoIt's disappointing you have to pay to see the original Science paper.
