A recent atomic discovery has paved the way for greener, faster, smaller electronic circuitry. This unleashes a new kind of silicon chips for used in common electronic products, such as our phones and computers. Scientists have seen many hints that atomic circuitry was within reach. While they had previously improved accuracy of atomic silicon printing, errors in the form of misplaced atoms always occurred at the one percent level. With their new discovery, many remaining challenges to ultra-low power atomic circuitry have also been erased.
