"typically act as insulators in chips, but effectiveness diminishes at nanoscale... aluminum oxide identical to natural sapphire in terms of crystal structure, dielectric properties, insulation characteristics... intercalation oxidation single-crystal aluminum oxide dielectric, unlike traditional amorphous dielectric, achieves exceptionally low leakage at just 1-nm level... extended battery life... artificial intelligence and Internet of Things applications"
