But then there's its mostly unknown and probably far superior rival called "silicene."
Like Us on Facebook Researchers from the University of Texas' Cockrell School of Engineering have just developed the first transistor made from silicene, said Extreme Tech. Silicene is recognized as an extremely difficult material to work with, and the development of a transistor made from the material so quickly is astonishing since silicene was only proven to exist in 2010.
