The problem they're tackling is what's known as "Boltzmann tyranny." It refers to the fundamental limit to how little voltage is required to switch a silicon transistor on and off at room temperature, where if you crank the voltage down too far, the transistor loses its switching ability. This voltage floor prevents major gains in energy efficiency for electronics, which could be a problem as power-hungry AI applications take over more processing duties.
