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.

Company's play for Coles, Woolworths, Aldi sparks warning for millions: 'Very concerned'
Afterpay is keen on getting into the Australian supermarket sector now that buy-now, pay-later (BNPL) services are more regulated. Under the revised law, these platforms have to follow the same rules and practices as credit card companies and lenders. Afterpay's co-founder Nick Molnar believes this update will give Woolworths, Coles and Aldi the confidence to accept BNPL as payment. But UNSW finance expert Andrew Grant told Yahoo Finance allowing shoppers to pay for their everyday shopping in instalments could be a slippery slope. "It is very easy to get in a hole if you are frequently buying things outside your budget," he said. "When it comes to groceries, am I going to spend more at the supermarket if you're offering Afterpay? That's something to be a little bit worried about." Afterpay, Klarna, Zip warning for Aussie users as major BNPL overhaul arrives Rare $1 coin worth 10 times more due to 'unfortunate' detail Woolworths shopper reveals little-known price tag trick Afterpay is already accepted at certain IGA and Drakes supermarkets. Grant said the majority of BNPL users keep on top of their repayments without a hassle. However, Domenique Meyrick, co-CEO of Financial Counselling Australia, believed a line needs to be drawn in the sand to prevent people from going into unnecessary debt. "We're very concerned about the possibility of these products being used in supermarkets," she told Yahoo Finance. 'Using credit to make ends meet is often a recipe for disaster — BNPL providers and retailers should not encourage people to do so." She added that financial counsellors have seen many people struggle to manage their finances because they're juggling multiple "unaffordable" BNPL loans and late these services have been used for big purchases, with shoppers more comfortable spreading out a $1,000 TV over four instalments. However, the cost-of-living crisis has pushed some into using BNPL to pay for much smaller items because they don't have the money to cover bare essentials. Before today, Aussies who wanted to use a BNPL service faced little opposition. They only had to fill in a few details before the cash advance was in their accounts. However, now providers will assess your ability to repay this money before approving your request. They will follow the same rules as credit card companies and lenders by looking at your income, expenses, and existing debts. BNPL platforms will also forward your payment history, whether it's good or bad, to credit reporting firms, which could harm your ability to get a credit card, personal loan, or mortgage in the future. Molnar believes having this type of regulation means BNPL services will be viewed more legitimately by the big supermarkets. 'Some of the biggest industries in [Australia] have been holding out to offer Afterpay until a date that we are regulated. We are now starting to scale into more everyday spend," he told the Australian Financial Review. Coles and Aldi told Yahoo Finance they had no plans to introduce Afterpay as a payment option in the future. Woolworths was a slightly vaguer, with a spokesperson telling us they had nothing to add. Grant told Yahoo Finance while the answer might be no right now, he believed they would consider it if they could negotiate with Afterpay the cost of acceptance. At the moment, it costs the merchant 2 to 8 per cent to take a BNPL payment, which is far higher than the 0.5 to 2 per cent they pay to accept debit and credit cards. The UNSW finance associate professor also highlighted that supermarkets might be be reticent in jumping on BNPL services because they could take a "reputational hit" if they're seen to be inadvertently plunging shoppers into debt. While these big supermarket giants don't technically allow people to pay with BNPL services, there is a loophole used by many. You can buy a Coles, Woolies, or Aldi gift card on several BNPL platforms and then use that card to purchase your groceries. Compare Club found nearly 31 per cent of Aussies surveyed had been using BNPL for essentials like groceries and fuel. However, the biggest proportion of users (66.67 per cent) reserved it for everyday non-essential items like clothing and gifts. Nearly a quarter of respondents to Compare Club's survey said they owed between $1,000 to $5,000 to a BNPL service.
