Quote:
There is a growing consensus in the computer industry that more compact and three dimensional packaging of chips is necessary to keep increasing the performance and reducing the power draw of everything from smartphones to supercomputers. The industry has thus far reduced power consumption and the physical size of chips by shrinking the lithographic processes used to etch the circuits on the chips, but at some point in the future we will start reaching approaching the physical limits of these processes.
