A reprieve for Moore’s Law? Work on gallium nitride semiconductors
It&#x27;s not as if Intel and others haven&#x27;t looked at this and other III-V materials.<p>These GaNs seem to be more suited towards amplifiers and a replacement for the kinds of components that GaAs is currently used - not digital logic.<p>For a look at a potential III-V materials for use in digital logic, have a look at this article.

No exponential can go on forever.  This will have huge ramifications for silicon valley.  You&#x27;re already seeing a slow-down.  Ever wonder why Intel chips aren&#x27;t getting all that much faster?
