The Japanese giant Hitachi has developed the world's smallest and thinnest =
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) chip. Measuring only 0.15 x 0.15 mill=
imeters in size and 7.5 micrometers thick, the wireless chip is a smaller v=
ersion of the previous record holder - Hitachi's 0.4 x 0.4 mm "Micro-Chip".=
The company used semiconductor miniaturization and electron beam technolog=
y to write data on the chip substrates to achieve this decrease in size. Th=
e new chips have a wide range of potential applications from military to tr=
ansportation, logistics and even consumer electronics.

Hitachi's RFID Chips (Credit: Hitachi Global)Nicknamed "Powder" or "Dust",=
these chips consist of 128-bit ROM (Read Only Memory) that can store a 38-=
digit number. Hitachi says the distance between each circuit element was re=
duced using the Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) process, where an insulation lay=
er and a monocrystalline silicon layer are formed upon the silicon base sub=
strate, and the transistor is then formed on this SOI substrate. When compa=
red to the conventional process where a transistor is formed directly upon =
the silicon substrate, this technology significantly reduces parasitic capa=
citance and current leakage, improving the transistor's performance. The SO=
I process also prevents the interference between neighboring devices, which=
often causes product malfunctions. Thanks to an insulator surrounding each=
device, Hitachi experts say that even when the devices are in close proxim=
ity, higher integration is achieved on an even smaller area. =09=09 =09 =
