wat ? we had 14/16nm node roll out in 2014, the 10nm node has gone live this year and 7nm is expected to hit in 2019/2020 - transistor tech has accelrated this gen

22nm - 2012

14nm - 2014 

10nm - 2018 (Cannonlake is releasing next year and not in 2016 as originally planned)

7nm - 2020/2021 ? 

You should also be wary of what semiconductor manufacturer's advertise as well including Intel ... (GF/TSMC's initial 7nm process is less dense than Intel's 10nm process, only Samsung's 7nm process will actually be more dense than Intel's 10nm process cause their using EUV first but even then it's not 2x the density that you would normally get from a full node shrink.)
