2. How might carbon nanotubes be used in the electronics industry? (1:35 MINUTES)
Dr. Meyya Meyyappan: "The carbon nanotube exhibits extraordinary electronic properties. It is able to conduct current at very high levels – something like more than a million amperes per one square centimeter of carbon nanotube. So, this allows us to use the carbon nanotube as an interconnect in the electronics – or computer chip manufacturing. A computer chip – which is the mainstay of the modern computers – it is actually based on silicon technology. And it has got a number of devices and capacitors and several other components. And an interconnect is something like a wiring scheme. Okay, so you connect various devices in a computer chip using some kind of a wire. And to this date copper has been the main material for the wiring scheme. And we are approaching current densities of the order of millions of amperes per one square centimeter, and copper is beginning to give some problems. At this kind of high current levels copper is beginning to fall apart. So, it is time to replace copper. It is time to look for something that is going to be able to withstand very, very high current levels, and the carbon nanotube, we think, is the replacement."
