Whatâs the background to this research?
Mooreâs Law states that you can cram more and more transistors into a certain area on an integrated circuit chip. And thatâs numberâs been growing exponentially for the last 30 or 40 years. Itâs primarily been used not to make the chips smaller, but to put more transistors on a chip thatâs the same size. So, weâve gone from chips with a thousand transistors to chips with tens of billions. But another thing you could do with that density is use it to make chips that are very, very small.
