Extreme pressure turns blue pigment into record-long single-atom copper chains
As the electronics in our technology keep shrinking, traditional silicon-based chips are approaching their fundamental physical limits.

As the electronics in our technology keep shrinking, traditional silicon-based chips are approaching their fundamental physical limits. Yet the wires connecting them might be able to shrink beyond conventional dimensions, as scientists have created one of the longest single-atom copper chains to date that could serve as molecular wires.
