Nano transistor breakthrough?

Apr 28, 2008 4 Replies

The nano semiconductor is supposed to give 50 times lower power consumption aswell as significantly faster switch times to work with radio at 60 GHz.



Any comments on plausability, impact etc..?

The breakthrough will be a fabrication idea which is actually feasible. Making one by hand is one thing but the challenge is to have them integrated and machine made. The first semiconductors were a carbon plate with two metal sticks pocking into. When it worked, it had a beta of 0.2, when ...
