Indian scientists propose ‘angstrom-scale’ chips to revolutionise semiconductor industry

A team of 30 scientists from India’s premier institute, the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), has submitted a proposal to the government to develop ‘angstrom-scale’ chips, far smaller than the smallest chips currently in production.

The team has submitted the proposal to the government for developing technologies using a new class of semiconductor materials, called 2D Materials, that could enable chip sizes as small as one-tenth of the smallest chips currently in global production and develop India’s leadership in semiconductors.
