They're not just bismuth! They're bismuth and selenium with some oxygen mixed in (to connect those elements together, I think).
The reason I point this out is because this means that not only can the chips of the future perform blazingly fast calculations they can also cure your tummy ache and prevent dandruff!
Once this technology becomes mainstream it'll be bismuth as usual. We'll all be getting down to bismuth.
A whole new era of puns is upon us! The product of the selenium.
Don't forget Selenium is also essential to defeat alien organisms!
