IBM has demonstrated a nine nanometer (9nm) carbon nanotube transistor (CNT) -- the smallest CNT ever made, and significantly smaller than any commercial silicon transistor. At 9nm, IBM's transistor ...

Semiconducting CNTs possess several advantages over traditional silicon, including higher carrier mobility and better electrostatic control at nanoscale dimensions. These properties make them ...

Carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNTFETs) represent a transformative advancement in nanoscale electronics, exploiting the unique electrical and mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes.

Carbon nanotubes are moving from lab curiosities to workhorse components in quantum hardware, and one of the most striking examples is their use as single-photon light sources. By exploiting their ...

Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE:NOC) and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have created the first fully-functional, all-carbon nanotube transistor radio, demonstrating that carbon ...

At IBM's Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, New York, some of the world's best physicists, chemists, and nanoengineers are trying to create the first high-density, self-assembling carbon ...

Researchers at IBM's T.J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, N.Y., have created the world's first logic-performing computer circuit within a single molecule. Such circuits may someday lead to ...

IBM researchers reported Friday they have made a breakthrough in transistor technology by building what they claim is the first array of transistors made out of carbon nanotubes. The researchers ...

As fast-evolving as electronic technology has always been, it makes sense that the semiconductor chips that run these technologies need to evolve alongside them. Those chips — the brains of our ...

Intel Corp. pulled back the curtain Friday on some of its future research projects to continue making transistors smaller, faster and less power-hungry out as far as 2020. In a briefing for reporters ...
