MIT researchers, in partnership with engineers from Analog Devices, have developed a processor based on the open standard RISC-V from carbon nanotubes. The first feat is the use of these nano carbon tubes, natural semiconductors that are as powerful as hard to master – production, layout, etc. With the difficulty of reducing the smoothness of traditional circuits (silicon) that the industry currently faces, carbon nanotubes are one of the innovative ways to compete in the race for miniaturization.
