Shrinking circuits with water

Article Abstract:

The most common method of making circuits smaller so that it could measure the breadth of virus is to reduce the wavelength of light with a machine that traces progressively tinier circuit features on a wafer. Hence researchers have developed toxic microbubble that could distort light focused on the surface of a semiconductor wafer and thereby affect the fidelity of an image projected onto a photosensitive film.

Check it out; a retina on a chip eyeballs bad paper

Article Abstract:

A new image sensor, to be manufactured by Synaptics, will mimic the human retina to locate worthless personal checks. The company is researching the designs of a microchip that can recognize counterfeit signs in currency.
