Forward-looking: A team of physicists from Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg in Germany have created the world's smallest pixel to date. Measuring just 300 by 300 nanometers, the tiny light source is just as bright as a conventional OLED pixel that's five by five micrometers in size and could eventually serve as the building blocking for next-generation, high-resolution wearable displays.

The unlikely microprocessor that launched AMD into a contender
Recap: Fifty years after its debut, the Am9080 remains an inflection point in AMD's evolution into a semiconductor manufacturer. It wasn't AMD's architecture and it wasn't yet innovation in the sense the industry remembers AMD for today – but it was proof that the company could build a cutting-edge CPU end-to-end, from silicon layout to packaging to military-grade qualification.
