Could This “2D” Transistor Process Transform Logic and Power Device Production?

CDimension has introduced a technology that allows semiconductor fabs to use ultra-thin materials to create vertically integrated arrays of "2D" transistors, potentially revolutionizing digital and power devices. The technology can produce high-performance transistors with improved energy efficiency and logic densities. By using a low-temperature BEOL process, the company can grow atomically thin films onto silicon substrates, resulting in transistors with higher electron mobility and lower leakage compared to traditional CMOS devices. This advancement could lead to the creation of single-chip products with multiple layers of functionality, including high-speed logic and memory. Initial commercial applications are expected in mid-2026, focusing on small MCUs with integrated memory and power-management units.

Researchers from MIT and the University of Waterloo propose a back-end integration platform for transistors and memory devices on a single chip using amorphous indium oxide. The team optimized the fabrication process to create 2nm thick indium oxide transistors with integrated memory components. Another research team from UC Santa Barbara, Tohoku University, and TSMC introduces all-digital probabilistic computing using magnetic tunnel junctions for improved AI efficiency. Additionally, researchers from the University of Warwick and National Research Council of Canada develop a high-mobility semiconductor using compressively strained germanium epilayer on silicon, showing promise for large-scale integrated circuits.
