"vertical transport field effect transistors (VTFET) could double the speed of processor chips, or alternatively, reduce the power they use by up to 85 percent... in the developmental stage—there are no chips to install in actual computers... new era in computing when computers and other digital devices such as phones and tablet computers will not only run faster, but will use far less energy, making batteries last much longer... shortening the path that electrons will need to travel when sending signals between transistors"
