Fudan University Team Extends Moore's Law with Ultra-Thin 2D Memory Chip
A team from Fudan University in Shanghai has made a groundbreaking achievement in chip technology. They've created a fully functional memory chip using ultra-thin, 2D materials, potentially extending Moore's Law and offering significant power savings.
The new chip operates at a peak speed of five megahertz and consumes minimal power, with each bit using only 0.644 picojoules of energy. This is made possible by combining traditional methods with emerging 2D technology, resulting in a hybrid chip with a high success rate of 94.34%.
The team's innovative Atom2chip process allows 2D materials to bond with conventional silicon, creating a stable hybrid chip. This breakthrough enables the 2D flash memory array to communicate with the CMOS chip's control logic, supporting instruction-driven operations and random access instructions. Until now, 2D materials had not been demonstrated in scalable, working components.
This achievement by the Fudan University team could revolutionize chip technology. The new chip's high speed, low power consumption, and potential for mass-manufacturing make it a promising candidate for future devices. Further research and development are needed to fully harness the potential of 2D materials in electronics.
