IBM reveals 0.7nm node chip, doubling transistor density over 2nm

▤ Summary

IBM announced a sub-1nm 0.7nm chip design that nearly doubles transistor density versus its 2nm node. The company says the new nanostack architecture can deliver up to 50% higher performance or 70% better energy efficiency. IBM positions the technology for generative AI, cloud infrastructure, and future electronic devices. The announcement also highlights related manufacturing work with partners such as Lam Research, Tokyo Electron, SCREEN Semiconductor Solutions, and ASML. IBM expects the technology could move toward production within the next five years.
