Gate All Around (GAAFET) technology is different to the widely-used and known FinFET standard, with GAAFET seeing a reduction in the total silicon size by around 35%, while consuming 50% less power.

FinFET scaling reduces lateral dimensions to increase device density per unit area while increasing fin height as a way to improve device performance. To continue transistor scaling and deliver higher ...

The team created a silicon-free transistor based on a two-dimensional material, bismuth oxyselenide. The innovation hinges on the gate-all-around (GAAFET) architecture, where the transistor’s ...

2D transistor offering 40% faster speeds and lower energy use may soon disrupt the global chip market - if China can successfully scale production.

IBM and Samsung Electronics jointly announced a breakthrough in semiconductor design utilizing a new vertical transistor architecture that demonstrates a path to scaling beyond nanosheet, and has the ...

The FinFET process technology has served nanometer nodes well for nearly a decade. It’s about time for GAA to take the baton and elevate the semiconductor industry to the next level of silicon scaling ...

So, when comparing the power, performance, area of a FinFET to a nanosheet transistor at the same dimensions, you will see the FinFET starts tanking in performance at about the 2-nm node.

In any case, it looks like FinFET is on the way out, while foundries will have to adopt the GAA-FET for use beyond 3 nm process nodes. This isn't just the next transistor for advanced chips – it ...

This is where new technologies such as FinFETs and 3D transistors come in. FinFETs use a fin-like structure to control the flow of current, while 3D transistors stack multiple layers of transistors on ...

Whether you call them finFETs, tri-gate or 3D transistors, building these new devices is difficult. But the technology is only half the challenge. In 2002, Chen Ming Hu* spoke at the Semico Summit.

According to the Korean-language Businesspost.kr, via SamMobile, Samsung Foundries is dealing with sub-par yields.It’s believed the initial runs of Samsung’s 3nm chips will be used for its own ...

WALTHAM, Mass., June 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lightning-fast mobile video streaming. Truly autonomous vehicles. A healthcare ecosystem connected in real time. While the upside of 5G networks ...
