Advances in materials and architecture could lead to silicon-free chip manufacturing thanks to a new type of transistor.

Awful lot of “could”, “maybe” and, “one day” in that article. It’s neat to see folks in the lab cook up something new but there’s a long way and a lot of hurdles between this and a functional chip. Especially one with the +40% performance and -10% power usage that they’re claiming.
Don’t the latest chips use 3d to stack more transistors in one spot?
What about it makes it 2D?
I just checked the diagrams and I was more concerned about the durability of these gaafets compared to finfets.
