Kirigami-inspired mechanical computer Researchers from North Carolina State University developed a kirigami-inspired mechanical computer that uses a complex structure of rigid, interconnected polymer cubes to store, retrieve, and erase data without relying on electronic components. The system uses 1-centimeter plastic cubes, grouped into functional units consisting of 64 interconnected cubes. ... » read more

Enabling Advanced Devices With Atomic Layer Processes
By Katherine Derbyshire - 18 Apr, 2024 - Comments: 2

Atomic layer deposition (ALD) used to be considered too slow to be of practical use in semiconductor manufacturing, but it has emerged as a critical tool for both transistor and interconnect fabrication at the most advanced nodes. ALD can be speeded up somewhat, but the real shift is the rising value of precise composition and thickness control at the most advanced nodes, which makes the ext... » read more
