(PhysOrg.com) -- IBM researchers are hopeful that, over the next decade, silicon-based transistors will be replaced by carbon-based transistors. IBM has already laid out the ground work for carbon-based transistors.
Nowadays, a myriad of silicon transistors are responsible to pass on the information on a microchip. The transistors are arranged in a planar array, i.e. lying flat next to each other, and have shrunk down already to a size ...
