The is the average space between transistors printed on the surface of the silicon chip. the measurement is in nanometers (nm); 1 nm is 1 billionth of a meter. current processor lithography ranges from 14 nm to 35 nm. the lower the measurement, the better and faster the processor performs.

processor lithography

Explanation:

Processor lithography in computing refers to the regular space established between  the transistors. Such a feature is of great importance in terms of power consumption and speed for processors. For instance, when comparing an Intel Core i7 with a low-cost AMD Athlon the difference in lithography is evident in time response and performance in executing different tasks.
