Scientists from KU Leuven and imec have successfully developed a new technique to isolate microchips. They use metal-organic grids, a new type of materials with structured pores at the nanoscale. In time, this method can contribute to the development of even smaller and more powerful chips that consume less energy. For further development, the research team receives an ‘ERC Proof of Concept grant’.
