    So we’re soon at 3nm, when have we reached the limit of what’s possible? An atom is 0.5nm?

        the number of nanometers used to name process nodes (see the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors) has become more of a marketing term that has no standardized relation with functional feature sizes or with transistor density (number of transistors per square millimeter).

        Pretty interesting, thanks for that link
