Source: Hardware.fr Chartered Semiconductor is a company that has worked with IBM for a long time to improve the smoothness of semiconductor burning. They participated in the establishment of the burning in 90, 65, 45 and 32nm.
The company announced that it had contracted again with IBM to participate in the development of etching in 22 nm scheduled to be launched early in the next decade.
The closer one gets to the quantum barrier, and we are almost theret, the higher the costs of R & D as well as those of toolmaking.
The founders hope in the future move to 11nm. After that, it is the unknown, one that will require radically altered manufacturing technologies for chips, about which not much is known.
