It is unclear what the next step in microchip development will be. We have already reached the limits of what is possible if we are talking about silicon-based semiconductors. Quantum computers are the future for now - an uncertain future, a lot of work still awaits us in this field. So can graphene prove to be an effective solution in this field? Perhaps semiconductor made from graphene will soon be commercially viable. This is very promising news.
In "Functional Semiconductor Made from Graphene," ScienceDaily details a breakthrough by Georgia Tech researchers: the world's first graphene-based semiconductor! Goodbye silicon, hello graphene – a super material that's not just a sheet of carbon atoms, but a marvel at conducting electricity. It's all about overcoming the "band gap" challenge, making graphene not just cool but also a potential game-changer in electronics. Picture your gadgets getting a superhero upgrade! To delve deeper into this futuristic twist, check out the full story see the link.
Why is this important? Research requires enormous resources in the IT area. Access to data does not yet mean success. There is now a battle over how to process data, and there is more and more data to process. So we need more computing power to cope with this amount of data. Any development in this area seems to offer hope for better use of the data acquired. Semiconductor Made from Graphene is an opportunity to do just that. High computing power can also lead to more efficient computer simulations.
