New approach to scaling; no limit - yet.
June 25, 2009
Analysis by: Israel Beinglass, Managing Director,Samsung's Kim Claims No Limit to Scaling | www.semiconductor.net

Kim, executive vice president and general manager of Samsung's Semiconductor R&D Center and Samsung Fellow claims that he believes that there are various possible paths to overcome obstacles of silicon scaling to continue to grow the silicon industry far beyond the nanometer range. It is definitely a brave new statement from a very respectable industry executive that goes against the most common notion that we are reaching the limit of scaling.
