"Although research is just beginning, the successors to 45nm technology will be 32 nm, 22 nm, then 10 nm technology."

Can you please provide an article that supports this. I have heard of the upcoming 32 nm technology, but not about the 22 nm and 10 nm transistor standards. KBi 03:03, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

For 22nm i found this this the 16nm (10?) seens to be speculation yet.--EduardoS 01:40, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

These numbers come from the ITRS Roadmap, which is updated yearly.

For more information, see Slashdot?

From the article: "(For more information on this subject, see this Slashdot discussion: [1].)" This is a joke, right? 198.205.32.93 14:32, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Removed this; it is possible that these numbers are arbitrary, but it is also possible that they reflect fundamental physical limits of some sort. to here. Personal speculation is not part of an encycopedia, but if someone could concretely answer this question please..:)

The numbers are certainly not Arbitrary. Look the idea is to increase the number of device by two for each generation or decrease the area of active devices by two for each generation. Therefore each generation the half-pitch or the length would be reduced by square root of 2, which is 1.414. So for example, starting with 180nm generation we get 130 nm and 90nm, 65nm, 45nm, 32nm, 22nm and like. This is called as a generation and defined by International Technological Roadmap for Semiconductors [1]. 129.7.53.138 20:35, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[Pranob Misra][reply]

SRAM cell

The SRAM cell area is published but the pitch is hard to judge from the SEM photo, especially if the photo aspect ratio was distorted during copy/paste. So the 180 nm pitch estimate is a guess, but based on a dangerous assumption.218.168.137.225 13:52, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

40 nm listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect 40 nm. Please participate in the redirect discussion if you wish to do so. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 22:54, 17 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
