In 1965, [[Chih-Tang Sah]], Otto Leistiko and [[Andrew Grove|A.S. Grove]] at [[Fairchild Semiconductor]] fabricated several NMOS devices with channel lengths between [[10 μm process|8{{nbsp}}μm]] and 65{{nbsp}}μm.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Sah |first1=Chih-Tang |author1-link=Chih-Tang Sah |last2=Leistiko |first2=Otto |last3=Grove |first3=A.

Critchlow and [[Robert H. Dennard]] at [[IBM]] also fabricated NMOS devices in the 1960s. The first IBM NMOS product was a [[memory chip]] with 1{{nbsp}}[[kibibit|kb]] data and 50{{ndash}}100 [[nanosecond|ns]] [[access time]], which entered large-scale manufacturing in the early 1970s. This led to MOS [[semiconductor memory]] replacing earlier [[bipolar junction transistor|bipolar]] and [[ferrite-core memory]] technologies in the 1970s.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Critchlow |first1=D.
