This conceptual illustration of a computer based on 2D molecules displays an actual scanning electron microscope image of the computer fabricated by a team by researchers at Penn State. The keyboard ...

Silicon is king in the semiconductor technology that underpins smartphones, computers, electric vehicles and more, but its crown may be slipping, according to a team led by researchers at Penn State.

Engineers at Pennsylvania State University have constructed the world’s first computer entirely made from atomically thin two-dimensional materials, bypassing silicon entirely in a step researchers ...

Silicon is the kingpin when it comes to semiconductor technology that’s used in smartphones, computers, electric vehicles, and more. However, the material could soon lose its claim as the most ...
