And this from our friend JH, who, while fellating INTEL, fails to recognoize POET again....karma is going to be a real bitch for him..

Researchers have been hunting for conventional techniques that would restart the old scaling engine for decades. They haven’t found any.

Intel and other firms continue to research III-V semiconductors, but there are no easy materials waiting in the wings, no next-generation semiconductor structures to boost clock speeds, and next-generation lithography is making painfully slow progress.

While there’s no serious potential for a short-term improvement (remember, it typically takes 10-15 years for a major breakthrough to manifest as a shipping products), the entire industry is pivoting to focus on low power precisely because consumers have identified low-power devices as the future of entertainment, computing, and cutting-edge design.
