Embedded Computing Design | Why Metrology is the Key to Intel's "Angstrom Era"

Forget measuring processes in nanometers – Intel has just said that we’re moving into the "angstrom era." It’s not just about smaller geometries (one angstrom, 1Å, of course equals 0.1nm), with the company announcing multiple new technologies as it revealed its roadmap to 2025 and beyond.

In this new era, we’ll see devices and materials now processed at the atomic level – but what does this really mean?
