Smaller chips a work in progress
Cell chip developers Sony, Toshiba and IBM are extending their joint research project on developing new semiconductors to power consumer electronics, reports M&C News.
The project, begun in 2000, will be extended through 2010 and will work on developing chips 32 nanometres or less.
The current standard size of computer chips is 90 nanometres.
Smaller chips allow manufacturers to produce faster, smaller and more energy-efficient devices while lowering costs.
