Electrons Can Travel Over 100 Times Faster In Graphene Than In Silicon, Physicists Show
“Interestingly, in semiconducting carbon nanotubes, which may be thought of as graphene rolled into a cylinder, we've shown that the mobility at room temperature is over 100,000 cm2/Vs”
Graphene, a single-atom-thick sheet of graphite, is a new material which combines aspects of semiconductors and metals. via Science Daily
