Ruler ch(e)at: No 14 nm chips !


As continued progress of Moore's Law approaches the next two semiconductor technology nodes, 11 nanometers and 7 nanometers, new metrology instruments — a kind of fine-scaled ruler — is needed to succeed. Since these rulers need to be as much as 10 times more fine than the semiconductors they are measuring the current rulers could have nixed Moore's Law continued progress. The previous finest scale rulers today were spaced at four nanometers — invented by aBeam Technologies Inc.

99% BAD HARDWARE WEEK: Future 1.5 nanometers ruler for 7 nm chips. Current 4nm ruler for 22 nm chips, then what existing ruler was used for Intel's 14nm super duper chips ?? None.! Thus, there is no 14nm chips ! No at all ? Weeeeell, except on some roadmaps. :))))
