Once again, much of our (US) technological prowess is driven by immigrants.

Their new technique could pave the way for next-generation computer memory and integrated-circuit chips, as well as advanced solar cells and other devices.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://esciencenews.com/articles/2008/07/08/mit.reports.finer.lines.microchips"><div align="center"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/esciencenews.com/img/4B0E2EB6-F02C-43EB-9699-55CC6C700E29" alt="The tool -- called a nanoruler -- used to make finer patterns of lines over larger areas than have been possible with other methods." /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://esciencenews.com/articles/2008/07/08/mit.reports.finer.lines.microchips"><P>The team has created lines about 25 nanometers (billionths of a meter) wide separated by 25 nm spaces. For comparison, the most advanced commercially available computer chips today have a minimum feature size of 65 nm.
