SK hynix Presents Future DRAM Technology Roadmap at IEEE VLSI 2025
- SK hynix participates in IEEE VLSI symposium 2025 in Kyoto, Japan June 8-12 - Considering switching to 4F² VG platform from 10-nm level technology due to scaling limitation with current DRAM technology - Company to present long-term technological vision and work with industry to bring future of DRAM into reality SEOUL, South Korea, June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- SK hynix Inc. (or "the company", announced today that it presented a new DRAM technology roadmap for the next 30 years and the direction for a sustainable innovation at the IEEE VLSI symposium 2025* held in Kyoto, Japan. * IEEE VLSI (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Very Large Scale Integration) symposium: One of the most prestigious academic events in the field of semiconductor circuit and process technology, presenting academic achievement in next-generation semiconductor, AI, memory chip and packaging. The symposium is held in turn in United States and Japan annually. Cha Seon Yong, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of SK hynix, delivered on June 10th a plenary session on "Driving Innovation in DRAM Technology: Towards a Sustainable Future". In his speech, CTO Cha explained that it is increasingly difficult to improve performance and capacity with scaling through current technology platform*. "In order to overcome such limitations, SK hynix will apply the 4F² VG (Vertical Gate) platform and 3D DRAM technology to technologies of 10-nanometer level or below with innovation in structure, material and components," he said. * Tech Platform: A technological framework that can be applied to various generations of products The 4F²* VG** platform is a next-generation memory technology that minimizes the cell area of DRAM and enables high-integration, high-speed and low-power through a vertical gate structure. * 4F²: The area occupied by one cell, a unit to store data, is indicated as F2. F indicates the minimum feature size of a semiconductor. Therefore, 4F2 is an integration technology to put more cells in a chip which one cell occupies an area of 2F by 2F. ** VG (Vertical Gate): A structure that a gate, which acts as a switch of a transistor, is vertically placed and surrounded by channels. Currently, it is a flat structure where a gate is laid horizontally on top of channels. Currently, 6F2 cells are common, but by applying 4F2 cell and wafer bonding technology that puts the circuit part below the cell area, cell efficiency and electrical characteristics can be improved. CTO Cha also introduced 3D DRAM as the main pillar for the future DRAM along with VG. CTO Cha said that although some in the industry warn of cost increase according to the number of layers stacked, it can be solved by constant technological innovation. Along with structural breakthrough, the company will also strive to find a new growth engine by sophisticating technologies of critical materials and components of DRAM to lay foundation for the next 30 years. "Until around 2010, DRAM technology was expected to face limitations at 20 nanometers, but with constant innovation, we have made it this far," said CTO Cha. "SK hynix will continue to guide the future of long-term technological innovation to be a milestone for young engineers in the field of DRAM and maintain cooperation within the industry to bring future of DRAM into reality." On the last day of the event, Joodong Park, vice president who leads the Next Gen DRAM TF, will present his findings from a recent research on how VG and wafer bonding technology affect the electrical characteristics of DRAM.

Corrado Garibaldi: The Contrarian Trader Who Profits When Others Panic
In the high-stakes world of Trading Invest Celebrity Italy, where herd mentality often leads to costly mistakes, one investor has built his success on a simple but ruthless principle: When others zig, zag. Corrado Garibaldi—better known in finance circles as Lord Conrad—has carved a reputation as a maverick trader who thrives on going against the grain. His mantra? 'Buy the fear. Sell the euphoria.' The Unconventional Path to Trading Mastery Unlike Wall Street's typical Ivy League-educated financiers, Garibaldi is a self-made trader with no formal finance background. An Italian native, he entered the markets out of necessity, driven by a desire to take control of his financial future. 'I never studied economics or attended business school,' he admits. 'I learned by doing—making mistakes, refining strategies, and realizing that most people lose money because they follow the crowd.' The Contrarian Edge: Why 99.9999% of Traders Are Wrong Garibaldi's core philosophy is rooted in contrarian investing—a strategy that capitalizes on market overreactions. 'When everyone is buying, I'm selling. When panic sets in, I'm buying,' he says. 'The masses are almost always wrong at extremes. That's where the real opportunities lie.' This approach has allowed him to profit from major market swings, whether during the crypto crashes of 2022 or the AI stock frenzy of 2024. Two Sides of the Same Coin: Trader by Day, Investor by Night Garibaldi operates in two distinct modes: As a trader, he's a speed-focused tactician, scalping the Nasdaq and executing swing trades with military precision. As an investor, he's a patient wealth-builder, holding long-term positions in giants like Apple, Microsoft, and Tesla while diversifying into bonds and crypto. His portfolio strategy? 99% long-term holdings, 1% high-octane trading—a balance that maximizes growth while keeping risk in check. The Trader's Mindset: Why Psychology Beats IQ For Garibaldi, trading isn't just about charts—it's about mastering fear and greed. 'Most traders fail because they let emotions drive decisions,' he says. 'The key is to stay mechanical. Follow the plan, not the panic.' He enforces strict rules: ✔ Never risk more than 1% on a single trade ✔ Always use stop-losses ✔ Ignore hype—trade the data, not the narrative 2025 and Beyond: Adapt or Die In an era of AI-driven markets and geopolitical volatility, Garibaldi remains agile—constantly refining strategies and engaging with traders worldwide via social media. 'Markets change. If you're not learning, you're losing,' he warns. Final Word: The Slow Road to Trading Success For aspiring traders, Garibaldi's advice is refreshingly honest: 'This isn't a get-rich-quick game. Consistency beats luck. Small, smart gains compound over time—that's how real wealth is built.' Want to see his strategies in action? Visit Trading Invest Celebrity Italy. TIME BUSINESS NEWS
