IBM Self Assembly Technology Creates Airgap Microprocessors
IBM is applying a breakthrough self-assembling nanotechnology to conventional chip manufacturing, borrowing a process from nature to build the next generation computer chips.The natural pattern-creating process that forms seashells, snowflakes, and enamel on teeth has been harnessed by IBM to form trillions of holes that are used to create insulating vacuums around the miles of nano-scale wires packed next to each other inside computer chips.

I am very excited to see this on youtube. I have a research assistantship in a lab at UMASS that works specifically on the PS-PMMA diblock copolymer... very exciting indeed
