For the past several years it has definitely felt like we had reached the end of Moore's Law, that computing devices would continue to become faster and faster. The standard CPU has been around 2 GHz to 3.5 GHz for quite some time and even premium CPU's don't top much over 4 GHz. We have seen an increase in the number of cores but programs capable of utilizing multiple cores haven't really kept the pace. But this article makes for an interesting development in transistor topology that could bring the race for faster computers back to the forefront. Could Silicon Valley become Tin Monoxide Valley?

Super flat material could extend life of Moore's Law Researchers could be fending off the demise of Moore's Law with the help of a new kind of flat semiconducting material made of tin monoxide that is only one-atom thick, allowing electrical charges to pass through it faster than silicon or other 3D materials.
