Yeah, there's a minimum volume required to store an electric charge and memory has reached it.
Global demand is collapsing due to the Great NotARecession, whatever price we reach by Christmas will be the lowest planar DRAM ever gets. So buy up all the DDR4 you need. ArF immersion tools that sit in DRAM fabs are now full amortized and memory lines are not likely to be earning much more than the marginal cost of maintenance, power and materials that they consume, any lower in price and they get turned off.
I hear good things about vertically stacked thin film transistors as a future technology, but they haven't left the lab yet.
