Big Blue is working on a new type of transistor it says will vastly increase performance and reduce power consumption of chips in the coming decade. Michael Kanellos is editor at large at CNET ...

IBM is heralding the return of Moore’s Law—the idea that the power of microchips will double every two years—with a new chip design that fits 50 billion transistors on a piece of silicon the size of ...

IBM, a powerhouse in the realm of semiconductor research, calls it the Vertical-Transport Field-Effect Transistor (VTFET). The most advanced chips on the market resemble sprawling suburbs, with ...

IBM announced last week that it has developed the technology to produce chips with 2nm transistors. You may remember from other episodes of our explainer show, Upscaled, that smaller transistors ...

In a move that could pave the way for faster and less power-hungry networking chips, IBM announced Monday that it has developed the world's fastest silicon transistor. IBM has refined its ...

IBM announced the creation of the "world's fastest silicon-based transistor," which performs nearly 300 percent faster than current production devices and 65 percent faster than previous silicon ...

At the December 2021 IEDM conference (a conference for people who design advanced semiconductors), IBM announced it was turning transistors on their heads to keep Moore’s Law scaling alive. The new ...
