The issue: 65-nm and 45-nm chip components have shrunk so far that they are now smaller than the wavelength of the light used to carve those features onto silicon chips. To fight that trend, AMD and IBM said they will use three new technologies to boost manufacturing efficiency.

High-shutter-speed photography has come a long way from Muybridge's galloping horse in 1887 and even from Edgerton's strobe work in the 1950s and '60s. Milliseconds are an eternity compared to the attosecond images of electron drift we see today, if you get our drift.
