Fusion42 · 29 August 2026 · Fusion42 review

TSMC and National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University have achieved a breakthrough in transistor design by engineering the channel material with epitaxial aluminum on monolayer molybdenum disulfide, enabling lower electron scattering and advancing sub-1-nanometer chip technology development.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Semiconductors.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

TSMC’s advance in transistor channel engineering rewrites the rules for sub-1-nanometer chip design. If you build semiconductor process technologies or chip designs, your product roadmap must now pivot to exploit this lower-scattering channel approach before competitors do.
