Update Carbon-Nanotube Wiring Gets Real.

Update Carbon-Nanotube Wiring Gets Real.

Could carbon nanotubes have a shot at replacing the copper wires that connect millions of transistors on today's silicon chips? Chip makers replaced aluminum interconnects with better conducting copper ones about seven years ago, but now copper's days are numbered too. Higher- performance...
