Atom-Thin Switches Could Route 5G and 6G Radio Signals
- madengr 6y agoNeat. I wonder what the breakdown is?

He points to research done at several universities and TSMC showing the integration of hBN with silicon. Good stuff. This can even be useful for new particle accelerators. There is so much stuff in the THz tech tree.

- dogber1 6y agoLinearity, on-state loss, pole-to-pole isolation, and breakdown will be atrocious. It makes for a nice clickbaity publication though.
