  • Abstract
    A new dark-horse candidate has emerged that claims to be able to make cheap 60-GHz technology without using any semiconductor materials. It uses a proprietary mix of insulators and metals to achieve quantum tunneling, which lets electrons zip through devices in mere trillionths of a second.
