>Using a new manufacturing technique, MIT researchers fabricated a 3-D transistor less than half the width of today’s slimmest commercial models, which could help cram far more transistors onto a single computer chip. Pictured is a cross-section of one of the researchers’ transistors that measures only 3 nanometers wide.

a node created in a highly controlled lab environment is very different from node length yields in high volume photolithogrphic chip fabrication

still ion canon madness is at least possible.
Wont be commerically done for over a decade tho im betting

I though the limiting factor was not physical size, but EM interference between adjacent transistors.

Might be done commercially for super computers and similar big customers, just not for retail consumers.

Nanoscale Vacuum-channel Transistors when?
Semiconductors are really close to reaching their minimum physical size limit.

Actually quantum-tunneling is a far bigger factor at these scales than EM radiation.
