The First Carbon Nanotube Computer A carbon nanotube computer processor is comparable to a chip from the early 1970s, and may be the first step beyond silicon electronics. For the first time, researchers have built a computer whose central processor is based entirely on carbon nanotubes, an incredibly tiny form of carbon with remarkable material and electronic properties. The computer is slow and simple, but its creators, a group of Stanford University engineers, say it shows that carbon nanotube electronics are a viable potential replacement for silicon when it reaches its limits in ever-smaller electronic circuits.
