| Boffins have another idea to replace Silicon Just when you thought one of the others might actually get used Stanford University boffins have emerged from their smoke-filled labs with yet another replacement for silicon in processes. It seems like we get one of these every few months, with none of them ever actually being used. This time it is two semiconductor materials, namely hafnium diselenide and zirconium diselenide, that not only are similar to silicon in many regards but also solves its biggest drawback: they can be made thinner. http://fudzilla.com/news/processors/...eplace-silicon |
