Changing production processes

[Trio]

As you know now the improved production process for electronic processors is the 45nm. Slowly all chip manufacturers have considered appropriate, or are looking for, adapt to this standard, which in many cases, see competition AMD / Intel, was the determinant of competitive advantage, allowing chips to hold more flights high, containing mainly the temperatures.

Within a few years have made great strides in the field, the development of nanotechnology has been hectic.

In the view of some it will be very difficult to move beyond (most in miniature) the limit of 45nm! it seems today's technologies do not allow, at both technical terms, to go much below these tolerances. In fact falling even some nanometer would be measures to handle too close to those of nuclear, theoretically impossible (for now) to manage and produce.

Talking with someone who is of these things, if not shoot buffaloes, he said that research in this direction is desperate, it seems you are looking for solutions that would disturb the quantum physics, in order to reach levels of production even more in scale. It seems, finding a way to break the barrier of 45nm does not appear to have life easy, and presumably this standard production will remain a benchmark for some years.

Others say that the real problem is finding the best materials, which could take from 3 to 5 years and a strong collaboration of manufacturers.

Would be curious to gather information, because if you plan a long stop to production processes, there will be serious repercussions regarding competition in the hardware market, thus smoothing the price with their decline in same.

who knows!

Dale discussions made at school, I realized that the limit is silicon, nanotechnology is no longer tend to exploit the silicon, but some polymers. In a few years research has advanced spasmodic, I think that will not stop because of a production process.
