Research breakthrough: 5 nanometer transistors (and what’s in it for you)


IBM and its Research Alliance partners GLOBALFOUNDRIES and Samsung have developed a first-of-a-kind process to build silicon nanosheet transistors that will enable 5 nanometer chips. The resulting increase in performance will help accelerate cognitive computing, the Internet of Things (IoT) and other data-intensive applications delivered in the cloud. The power savings could mean that the batteries in smartphones and other mobile products could last two to three times longer than today’s devices, before needing to be charged.
