[00:00:00]The hidden atomic gap that could break next generation computer chips.

[00:00:04]A major obstacle may be standing in the way of the next generation of ultra-tiny computer chips.

[00:00:10]Researchers discovered that many promising 2D materials lose their advantages because an invisible atomic scale gap forms when they are combined with insulating layers.

[00:00:19]That tiny gap weakens electronic performance and could prevent further miniaturization.

[00:00:25]The team says new zipper materials that lock together more tightly may offer a path forward.
