Multi-nanotube transistors equal silicon for the first time

Engineers at the University of Wisconsin Madison have created carbon nanotube transistors that can equal the current density of silicon transistors. At issue is not single nanotube transistors, but transistors that carry increased current by combining dozens of nanotubes. Unless these tubes are largely parallel and have just the right density – not too crowded and ...
