Fingolfen, thanks so much for the link. This is neat stuff.

By the way, I found this quote interesting (regarding double-gate transistors).

"This could be used to eventually reduce the gate lengths in transistors to as small as 9 nm, which is currently the target of the 22-nm node set for 2016. At 9 nm, these gates will only be made up of 30 silicon atoms, noted ITRS committee leaders."

I don't know about 9nm, but Intel has their 15nm node set for 2009. 9 nm seems like 2 generations later, and 2016 is certainly a long way away, but I am impressed that Intel has already demonstrated that 15nm is possible. I don't doubt that the industry will find some way of moving farther out in the future. The possibilities are endless.
