As a refference for Harry:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Die_shrink
4 nodes better then 40nm corresponds to a FINFET 11nm.
But as I mentioned previously, I am sure this POET statetment of "4 nodes better in speed" is very conservative; they previously mentioned clock speeds of 40GHz (Si-CMOS is sticking at about 4GHz), and recently also a 5x speed advantage! Well, the future will tell us! First quarter of 2015?

| 180 nm | 150 nm |
| 130 nm | 110 nm |
| 90 nm | 80 nm |
| 65 nm | 55 nm |
| 45 nm | 40 nm |
| 32 nm | 28 nm |
| 22 nm | 20 nm |
| 14 nm | 16 nm |
| 10 nm | 11 nm |
