South Korea developed 2 nano wire opened a new era of semiconductor technology

News November 17th, Thursday, the Ministry official said that its scientists have successfully developed the world's thinnest metal line, but this success is also seen as a major breakthrough in the field of science and technology to shock.

English.yna.co.kr reported that the development of the metal line width of only 2 nm, from the South Korean capital of Seoul, Yonsei atomic line research and development center.

Analysts pointed out that with the advent of ultra-thin metal wire technology, the future of semiconductor products will have a greater capacity and faster. According to the research team of 12 scientists revealed that through this technology, the size of the future memory chips will be greatly reduced, while the semiconductor seal technology will enter a new era of 2 nanometer.

So far, South Korea's Samsung's most advanced 16G memory is still using 50 nanometer design standards. The industry is currently developing goals, but also a successful transition to 25 nanometer technology. The study began in 2003, sponsored by the Ministry of science and technology, the total cost of funds reached $2 million 140 thousand.
