China Just Built a 1nm “Beyond Silicon” Chip: West is FREAKING OUT!

Описание: In the first two weeks of 2026, China quietly crossed three lines scientists thought were still years away. This video breaks down how Nanjing University finally solved the contact problem for 2D MoS₂ transistors at the 1 nm node, why that “beyond silicon” device could be the template for post-silicon chips, how Peking University’s new multi-physics Fourier accelerator hit around 500 billion operations per second at far lower power, and what really happened inside EAST, China’s “Artificial Sun,” when it pushed fusion plasma safely beyond the long-standing Greenwald density limit. We examine how these three breakthroughs connect: from sub-1 nm transistors and specialized AI hardware to high-density fusion, which could one day power the data centers that run them. We also compare China’s strategy to Western roadmaps from IMEC, NVIDIA, Google, and fusion projects like ITER, and ask whether Beijing has just opened a side door around the traditional U.S.–led choke points in chips, AI compute, and energy. So what do these results actually mean for the chip war, the future of GPUs, and who owns the next decade of AI and fusion power?
