"Maximizing Moore's Law: Advancements in 3D Integration for Computer Chips"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Tech Xplore

Penn State researchers have demonstrated a breakthrough in 3D integration of semiconductors using 2D transistors made with 2D semiconductors, offering a solution to the limitations of Moore's Law. This approach not only allows for more silicon-based transistors on a computer chip but also enables the use of transistors made from 2D materials to incorporate diverse functionalities within various layers of the stack. The researchers achieved monolithic 3D integration at a massive scale, characterizing tens of thousands of devices, bridging the gap between academia and industry and potentially advancing the semiconductor industry.
