Nanoimprint Lithography

An anonymous submitter writes "According to BBC News, researchers at Princeton have developed a die-stamp method for chip fabs. The Princeton site claims they've got to 10nm already. The professor in charge has told BBC News Online that they're '20 years ahead of Moore's Law.' Dubious claims aside, it looks like a handy way to bring down prices even if it doesn't improve ultimate top speed."

10 nm != .1 micron

10 nm == .01 microns last time I looked.

1 nm = 1e-9 m
1 micron = 1e-6 m

Actually, you and the CNet link you posted have it wrong, also. Moore predicted transistor density would double, not the number of transistors on a Microprocessor. Here's the reference from the man himself.
