Erm, what? "Heavier" electrons? Just ... no. Wherever that came from, whoever said it first, they need taking out the back and giving a stern talking to.... the heavier electrons in molybdenum ...

I'm assuming they mean heavier molecular structure but still...Originally Posted by scaryjim
Not something I had heard of but then my quantum physics classes were a couple of decades ago.

It's good news for the low power market, but as it is in the electronics assembly world qfp and bga size are already reaching their minimums. A lot of this is due to lead free solder which is mostly tin, which can form whiskers and lead to shorts even with vapour phased ovens. This means that the overall package size won't shrink much if at all beyond what we currently have. If the connection amount increases so will the package size.
Heavier electronsWho checks this stuff? Was the research done in California? A lot of things are heavier than they should be over that way.
Anyone seen the Dara O'Brien routine based on "the neutrinos have mutated" line from the film 2012?
The film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXqUcuE8fNo (see 3 minutes)
And Dara's wonderful commentary is not available online. Despite it having been broadcast on free to air TV somehow every clip I can find in a search that used to host it has now been removed due to objections from Universal Studios (presumably because DoB played the clip during his routine.) But yet I can still find their clip without the standup routine. Madness. Almost as mad as saying electrons are heavier.
