Intel's new chip
On Monday, Intel introduces the first computer chip made from a breakthrough technology that overhauls the basic elements at the heart of the semiconductor. Using new materials, the company's Oregon engineers overcame limitations that threatened to derail the advance of computing power and created a chip that's both faster and more energy-efficient than its predecessors.
Intel also revamped its manufacturing process to produce the new chip technology in multibillion-dollar factories in Arizona, New Mexico and Israel. A story in Sunday's paper details how Intel replicates its Oregon development factory around the world. Click on the graphic below to view a factory at work.
