What’s Next in Semiconductors
is 1 nanometer and beyond
Our chip-driven world owes much of its power and possibility to the semiconductor technologies pioneered at IBM. This legacy of innovation includes the first implementation of 7 nm and 5 nm process technologies, single cell DRAM, chemically amplified photoresists, copper interconnect wiring, silicon on insulator technology, high-k gate dielectrics, embedded DRAM, 3D chip stacking, and more. Today, we continue to push the limits of semiconductor design and packaging with inventions like the 2 nm node chip, vertical transistors, and nanosheet transistor technology.
