Question 2

Advantages of using carbon nanotubes:

Faster and smaller- carbon nanotubes can be used to produce
smaller and faster components.

This will also result in computers that consume less energy.

High speed and high capacity memory.

Allows circuits to be more accurate on the atomic level.
