Chinese scientists say they have developed a method to grow ultra-thin two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor materials some 1,000 times faster than existing techniques, a breakthrough that could support next-generation AI chips. Rising demand for high-performance, energy-efficient chips, driven by AI and large language models, is pushing existing semiconductor technology close to its limits. As transistors, the tiny switches that power chips, shrink to near-atomic sizes, enginee
