Computer Chips @ 500GHZ to 1000GHZ range
 
MIT Graphene Chip Could Reach 1,000 Gigahertz
MIT researchers claim that graphene, an experimental material first identified in 2004, may be able to boost the clock speed of computer chips into the 500-GHz to 1,000-GHz range.

The scientists at MIT EECS have constructed an experimental graphene chip capable of multiplying electrical signal frequencies. While frequency multiplication technology is used in current electronics, these systems generate noisy signals and require significant filtering and power, according to the MIT news service. The graphene chip uses only a single transistor and its output is clean, requiring no filtering. » Read full story Source: www.techpowerup.com

BITCHIN SPEED! :trophy:

Without Viagra even!!!

To bad it's probably sooooo far away from happening.

This is taking FOREVER. Graphene has been in the news for a veryyy long time.

Well according to the article, at least since 2004. I'm sure MIB has been using it since 1964. :rolleyes:
