The 7-5nm was said to be so much a barrier before. I'm sure this will unleash a ton of capital and brains to keep digging.

ps: I heard spintronics and neutronics caught some wind on paper

There is a new exciting paper about DNA computers as well.

Hah, Woods of course. Two years ago a previous colleague of him hosted a talk in Paris. I got a peek of the work it was truly staggering. But the guy told me they were too instable at scale so far. Sounds like a solid hint at the future though.

ps: do you work in this field ?

Not at all, just an interested layperson (I'm in 'normal' IT). My partner studies evolutionary genetics (or something like that), so we talk frequently about biology. There is another DNA computing paper that was very interesting published earlier this year by another group, but I can't find it now. I think it was in Nature.

Actually spintronics unlike others is ready to come to mainstream, through MRAM.
