The number of transistors that can be placed inexpensively on an integrated circuit doubles approximately every two years. This empirical law is primarily known for the increasing trend of processors speed, which is widely influenced by the capacity of miniaturizing transistors in silicon-based chips. However, the general formulation of the law affects all semiconductor technologies, such as CPUs and electronic memories.But do limits to these exponential laws exist?
When miniaturization is involved, atomic limits are usually the ultimate frontier.
