Prof Francesco Petruccione IBM this week claimed the first sub-nanometre chip, a generation it calls the 0.7nm, or 7-angstrom, node. It says the design packs nearly 100 billion transistors onto a fingernail-sized surface, about twice the density of its 2nm chip from 2021, with up to 50% more performance or 70% better energy efficiency. Production…
Image: IBM IBM on Thursday unveiled what it said was the world’s first sub-1nm chip technology — a node it calls the 0.7nm, or 7-angstrom, generation — as tech companies race to build semiconductors that can handle increasingly demanding AI workloads.
