According to expert predictions, after 2024, graphene devices are expected to replace complementary metal oxide semiconductor devices.

doubt.

While the technology is really cool, I really despise this sort of article that acts like it's going to be the next big thing, when in fact that is anything but certain.

Yeah, 2024 does seem to be overstating things. I can see this technology starting to get commercialized by 2024, but it's going to take time to grow infrastructure to mass produce.

The great thing about CMOS is that it's essentially a printing process. You take a sheet of silicon and coat it with different patterns of different chemicals, to form all the electrical structures. It's very simple and cheap.

How are graphene-based electronics to be mass produced?
