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 Capital Region has become an epicenter for research and manufacturing of so-called 3D, or stackable, computer chips, a study by the Center for Economic Growth in Albany found.

Current copper wiring in computer chips struggles to carry electricity efficiently as circuits shrink to the nanoscale, leading to a process that generates heat and limits performance. These materials ...

South Korea accounts for only 19% of the world's semiconductor production while the U.S. produces only 12% of the global share, a drop in the ocean.

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 ...

Funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation is part of a broader push to propel domestic computer chip manufacturing A $3 million grant from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) to the ...

For a while, the intense competition in the chip manufacturing world looked like a two-horse race. TSMC has been consistently ahead, with Samsung playing catch-up. While the South Korean giant has ...
