IBM Introduces Advanced Chip Technology; New Semiconductor
Process Is Industry First

FISHKILL, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 22, 1997--IBM today
announced that it has developed a new semiconductor manufacturing
process that enables the company to shrink electronic circuitry to
smaller dimensions and fit more computer logic, or "intelligence,"
onto a single chip.

This technology, called CMOS 7S, is the first to use copper
instead of aluminum to create the circuitry on silicon wafers.
This represents a major milestone in semiconductor technology.
While copper has long been recognized as a superior electrical
conductor, it has been difficult to adapt to semiconductor
manufacturing, leaving aluminum as the material of choice for
over thirty years.
