We know graphene is tough stuff<\/a>, but Big Blue<\/a>‘s discovering the substance makes a great transistor too, to the tune of a record-setting 100GHz.<\/p>\n

You see, the 100Ghz graphene transistor IBM was crowing about this week is already much, much faster than a comparably sized silicon one. Current “state-of-the-art” silicon maxes out at 40Ghz. But better still, IBM created the graphene screamer using existing silicon fabrication methods. No new gear necessary!<\/p>\n

However, as is commonplace with these types of stories, graphene transistors—at least ones deployed widely in everyday computing—are still a ways away. IBM researchers, why must you tease us so? [IBM<\/a> via Engadget<\/a>]<\/p>\n
