Big Blue is in the process of showing of its latest graphene transistor that is capable of executing 155 billion cycles per second. IBM’s test revealed that the transistor is 50 percent faster than previous versions of the experimental transistors.
That said the transistor has a cut-off frequency of 155GHz. The previous transistor had a frequency of 100GHz when IBM showed it off last year.
IBM’s Yu-Ming Lin stated that the research further showed that high-performance, graphene-based transistors can be asembled at an economical cost using standard semiconductor manufacturing processes. Meaning, commercial production of graphene chips should be happening in the near future.
