[Korea.net News, Science / Tech, April 2 2008] Scientists develop new nano-scale chip circuitry technology

Korean scientists said Wednesday (Apr. 2) that they have developed a technology to greatly reduce the thickness of semiconductor circuitry and allow the production of higher-capacity memory chips.

The new "doping" technology described in the latest issue of Physical Review Letters helped make nanometer scale circuit lines. A nanometer is one-billionth of a meter in size.
