Beyond Silicon

A breakthrough in material technologies that can extend Moore’s Law for a few more years.

Speaking about the successful creation of a metal-insulator-metal diode, Douglas Keszler a distinguished professor of chemistry at Oregon State University said

“This is a fundamental change in the way you could produce electronic products, at high speed on a huge scale at very low cost, even less than with conventional methods. It’s a basic way to eliminate the current speed limitations of electrons that have to move through materials.”
