  • Abstract
    In 2013, a team at Stanford reported that it had arranged arrays of tiny, atom-thick cylinders to create an entirely new machine: the world´s very first carbon nanotube computer. With a clock speed of just 1 kilohertz and fewer than 200 transistors, it didn´t stand a chance of competing with today´s silicon-based processors.
