Single-crystal films of 10% La-doped hafnia kept intrinsic antiferroelectric order under compressive strain down to 0.6nm. Here is what the 850±50°C figure means, and which performance metrics for energy storage, cooling and memory have yet to be measured.
A Vapor developer says PC GTA V averaged 66 fps driving through the city on an iPhone 18 Pro Max. Claims of GTX 1650 parity and a 1,180% power-efficiency edge can't be verified without matching fps and measured power data.
TSMC's 1.4nm process (A14) is on track for trial production in 2027 and mass production in 2028. The company will forgo High-NA EUV in favor of Low-NA multi-patterning and NanoFlex Pro, while A13—arriving in 2029 with a 97% optical shrink—aims to deliver an edge in yield and cost efficiency.
Reports say eight major U.S. companies are evaluating Intel's 14A process, and that its performance could land within 5% of TSMC's A14. But the two companies' official improvement figures use different baselines. Technical documents and earnings filings show how far customer evaluations, performance forecasts and volume demand have really progressed.
ASM has unveiled a carbon film that fills trenches and flattens the surface in a single PECVD process, and says early production adoption has begun. We trace its development since 2023 and look at the performance figures that remain undisclosed.
BOE is sending 24-layer glass substrates for semiconductors to customers for verification in servers. A look at how its investment decision—tied to orders and yield—compares with the supply and mass-production plans of Korean firms.
Google will launch the first satellite for its Project Suncatcher space-based AI data center initiative aboard SpaceX next week, testing in orbit whether TPUs can withstand radiation, radiate heat in a vacuum, and support ultra-close formation flying.
China's YMTC has won a sales injunction against Micron from the Munich Regional Court over two German utility models. The first-instance ruling came 347 days after filing, but three of the five cases were postponed, and Micron has appealed. This piece maps the dispute across seven courts and examines how far the injunction can actually reach given the remaining term of the rights.
Raspberry Pi fixes RAM capacity at shipment, but engineers say repairs using identical chip part numbers remain possible. Here's what certified parts and firmware requirements reveal.
Reports indicate Intel's EMIB substrate yield has improved to roughly 45%. Comparing anonymous industry figures against primary sources from Intel and substrate makers reveals a gap between substrate progress and mass-producible finished packages.
