Column: 2D materials struggle to deliver on semiconductor scaling promise (Digitimes)
|
|
|
The isolation of graphene in 2004 sparked widespread expectations that two-dimensional (2D) materials could fundamentally reshape electronic devices. Graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have since enabled progress in niche applications and research prototypes. Yet their impact on mainstream logic devices remains limited. The long-anticipated use of 2D materials to sustain Moore's Law through transistor channel integration has yet to materialize at scale....

AI servers and semiconductors drive Taiwan PCB peak season; TPCA forecasts 11% growth in 2025 (Digitimes)
|
|
|
Taiwan's printed circuit board (PCB) industry is set for robust growth in 2025, supported by strong demand from AI servers amid a weakening traditional smartphone market. The Taiwan Printed Circuit Association (TPCA) highlighted that despite external uncertainties such as exchange rate fluctuations and tariff negotiations, the sector benefits from price hikes driven by tight supply of high-end materials, leading to increases in both volume and prices....
