IBM has achieved a significant progress to produce nano carbon transistors

IBM has found a way to replace silicon transistors with carbon nanotube transistors and said that their new development will overcome the limits of Moore's Law.

IBM said its researchers have scaled the contacts of transistors beyond the traditional limitations. This allows to manufacture the smaller chips.

The chips that are made from carbon nanotubes include sheets of carbon atoms in rolled tubes. That means the high-performance computers may have the ability to analyze these large data faster, while using the battery and computing power of mobile devices will be better.

Moore's Law says that the ability of the semiconductor industry allows the processing power to be doubled every 24 months. This law starts to reach the limit of physics. It means that computing power is growing slowly.

IBM said the carbon nanotube transistors can work as a lock that has 10,000 times thinner than human hair and the size is less than half than the most advanced silicon technology.

According to IBM they have successfully made 9nm transistors and expects this size can be reduced to 1.8nm.
