Today, scientists at IBM (http://www.overclockaholics.com/forums/#) Research and the California Institute of Technology announced a scientific advancement that could be a major breakthrough in enabling the semiconductor industry to pack more power and speed into tiny computer (http://www.overclockaholics.com/forums/#) chips, while making them more energy efficient and less expensive to manufacture.

IBM researchers and collaborator Paul W.K. Rothemund, of the California Institute of Technology, have made an advancement in combining lithographic patterning with self assembly - a method to arrange DNA origami structures on surfaces compatible with today's semiconductor manufacturing equipment.

i dont wanna know about you adding dna to the socket :thumbdown:


That is wayyy cool though.... hey next thing you know were gonna have cpu's the size of realtek audio chips :good: :morpheus:
