We’ve got computers that run on a single iodine molecule and transistors made of just a handful of atoms, so why not create electronic components out of tiny strands of DNA?

我们已经可以使计算机在单碘分子和由几种原子组成的晶体管上运行，那么为什么不利用微小的DNA链来创建电子部件呢？

ECONOMIST: Bioelectronics

His group is trying to make nano-electrical components, and has built transistors based on tubes made of boron nitride.

ECONOMIST: Was the carbon nanotube overhyped?

Instead of being fixed, a string of bits specifies the chip's design by telling it what linkages to forge between its various components (in this case, groups of transistors known as logic cells).
