Global business services provider–IBM has made a breakthrough in semiconductor design and process with the development of the world’s first chip with 2 nanometer (nm) nanosheet technology. The International Business Machines (IBM) Corporation's new 2 nanometer chip technology helps advance the state-of-the-art in the semiconductor industry, addressing this growing demand. It slashes the carbon footprint of data centers, which account for one per cent of global energy use. The innovation makes IBM Research Albany a world-leading ecosystem for semiconductor research and creates a strong innovation pipeline, helping to address manufacturing demands and accelerate the growth of the global chip industry. Its first commercialized offering including IBM Research 7 nm advancements will debut later this year in IBM Power 10-based IBM Power Systems.
