TSMC has new transistor structure (nanosheet) and new materials such as high mobility channel, 2D, carbon nanotube (CNT). TSMC has already demonstrated at 32Mb nanosheet SRAM fully-functional at 0.46V. It has also identified promising 2D materials such as MoS₂ (molybdenum disulfide). At IEDM last year, they disclosed the first BEOL CNT power-gating device integrated with silicon-based CMOS.

Scaling continues with EUV advances with the current generation of scanners. They are also working with ASML (the only supplier of EUV equipment) on High-NA EUV [read more...]
