Engineers and researchers are assembling the technical groundwork for manufacturing semiconductor materials on the Moon, drawing on lunar soil as a raw feedstock for silicon-based devices. The concept, which spans peer-reviewed journal papers, NASA ...

President Donald Trump’s ambiguous plans for 100% tariffs on computer chips that aren’t made in the U.S. are stoking confusion among businesses

Current copper wiring in computer chips struggles to carry electricity efficiently as circuits shrink to the nanoscale, leading to a process that generates heat and limits performance. These materials could make future chips faster, more energy-efficient ...

TOKYO—Atsuyoshi Koike dreams of making computer chips on the moon. First, though, he has to prove he can do it on earth. Koike is the public face of Japan’s multibillion-dollar effort to muscle back into an industry it used to dominate. He leads ...

Jan 27 (Reuters) - U.S. memory chip maker Micron Technology (MU.O), opens new tab is set to announce new memory chip manufacturing capacity investment in Singapore, three people briefed on the matter said, expanding production in response to an acute ...

Rumor mill: Apple is considering a shift in how some of its most important components are manufactured after reaching a preliminary agreement with Intel to produce a portion of the chips used in its devices, according to people familiar with the matter.

The chip industry is the most complex that you could imagine, and quantum computing, intrinsically, is based on some of the most complex, non-intuitively understandable math that humankind has ever discovered,

A 2D material called chromium oxychloride dramatically outperforms traditional hard masks in chip fabrication, resisting plasma etching far better at nanoscale thicknesses. (Nanowerk News) Making computer chips smaller is not just about better design.
