Graphene may have stolen carbon nanotubes’ thunder but the nano-coiled “chicken wire” has an almost 20 year headstart. The IBM Research centre in New York is making impressive progress on harnessing self-assembled arrays of them. Now in Nature Nanotechnology they report a wet chemical self assembly technique that can produce 10,000 transistors in a way that is compatible with conventional top-down fabrication. The transistors are mostly well aligned, make good electrical connections and have a 90% success rate. Whether the technique is scalable to the point where it can rival silicon fabrication is an open question but the difficult interface between chemical self-assembly and precision top-down fabrication has been bridged.

Reducing electronic devices, while increasing their capabilities, efficiency and speed, resulting in an increased ability of electronic systems is now much less and much more functional installation form. 3/17/2013 04:46:15 pm
Really a scientific approach.The nature nanaotechnology had designed transistors that is compatible with top-down fabrication.This fabrication progress and it will hit the future endeavours of nanotechnology.Thank you for a n informative post.Post that covers scientific features.Its nice to read.
