The chipmaker plans to increase the performance of its microprocessors next year, in part by dispersing silicon atoms, taking a leap into the nanotechnology era.
- Sun Aug 29 2004 Intel to throttle power by enhancing silicon
Power consumption continues to climb, so Intel will reach into the bag of tricks to keep Moore's Law going.
- Sun Dec 12 2004 IBM, AMD claim a better way to strain silicon
Chip performance is being improved by pulling silicon atoms apart, and in some cases pushing them closer together.
- Tue Sep 22 2009 Intel CEO looks beyond the PC
Paul Otellini shows off 22-nanometer silicon to the IDF crowd and talks of moving Intel's Atom technology beyond Netbooks to places like car dashboards.
- Fri May 19 2000 Labs, chipmakers work to keep silicon alive
A consortium of national labs and chipmakers combines cutting-edge technology with Cold War lessons to keep silicon chips alive for at least another decade.
- Wed Jan 25 2006 Intel shows test chips made on future processes
Moore's Law is on track, the chipmaker says, and it shows off 45-nanometer creations to prove it.
Photos: Intel's 45-nanometer process - Mon Sep 8 2003 IBM combo technique tweaks transistors
Researchers at Big Blue manage to combine strained silicon and a silicon insulator in the same wafer, a new approach that could lead to faster, more efficient chips in a few years.
