The First Carbon Nanotube Computer | MIT Technology Review

The First Carbon Nanotube Computer | MIT Technology Review: The carbon nanotube processor is comparable in capabilities to the Intel 4004, that company’s first microprocessor, which was released in 1971...
The nanotube processor is made up of 142 transistors, each of which contains carbon nanotubes that are about 10 to 200 nanometer long...
Theoretical work has... suggested that a carbon nanotube computer would be an order of magnitude more energy efficient than the best silicon computers.
