“The greatest significance of this technique is that it provides the potential to manufacture, at a high rate and on a large scale, three-dimensional single-wall carbon nanotube electrical interconnects, without the need for high-temperature synthesis,” Srinivas Sridhar, Director of the Electronic Materials Research Institute, told PhysOrg.com.

And the law named after Gordon Moore continues apace, laughing at our arbitrary constraint of framing the doubling within the context of silicon based integrated circuits.

But the doubling of the number of transistors on an integrated circuit can be extrapolated back through time through previous technologies: Kurzweil's expansion of Moore's law.  This implies that as we reach the maximum of possible transistors due to molecular level interference there will be new technologies that come along to replace it.

3D chips are one potential direction of the paradigm shift.
