Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research Summary
A team of scientists discovered that electrical conduction in graphene on the picosecond timescale -- a picosecond being one thousandth of one billionth of a second -- is governed by the same basic laws that describe the thermal properties of gases. This much simpler thermodynamic approach to the electrical conduction in graphene will allow scientists and engineers not only to better understand but also to improve the performance of graphene-based nanoelectronic devices.
...they show the way for breaking the terahertz operation speed barrier -- i.e. one thousand billions of oscillations per second -- for graphene transistors
