TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed an off-the-beaten-path approach for the fabrication of sub-0.1 /spl mu/m dimensions by self-organization, where the main part of the expenses in modern IC manufacturing process is devoted to the R&D needed to optimize chip size, wafer size, defectivity and interconnects.
Abstract: The major part of the expenses in modern IC manufacturing process is nowadays devoted to the R & D needed to optimize chip size, wafer size, defectivity and interconnects- building up to keep Moore's law a reality. But the question is: Can circuits with sub-0.1 /spl mu/m dimensions be fabricated by the extension of current device production technologies? An interdisciplinary 'off the beaten path' approach is mandatory to overcome future limitations. One such approach is fabrication of devices (or at least parts of devices) by self-organization.
