transistor is widely used in all kinds of communications products.\u00a0 <!--more-->I.B.M. has, in the past, created stand-alone graphene transistors, but this device is the first complete graphene electronic circuit.\u00a0 Graphene is not yet a candidate to replace today\u2019s CMOS transistors, but industry is excited over the potential applications for the material.\u00a0 Government and corporate investments, particularly in Asia and Europe, in graphene, are far in advance of those in the United States, according to Phaedon Avouris, a chemical physicist with I.B.M.\u00a0 The European Union and South Korea have both invested heavily in efforts to use graphene as a next-generation display material.\u00a0 The low cost of graphene has driven the push to try and integrate it into today\u2019s conventional consumer electronics systems.<strong>\u00a0 <\/strong>\u201cIn principle it can be made very cheap and it can be light-transparent,\u201d Dr. Avouris said, \u201cand so even if we don\u2019t go for high frequency, I think it can revolutionize the price\u201d of radio-frequency electronics. \u00a0I.B.M., while now able to build circuits with the material, is still learning reliable ways to make large quantities of graphene film.\u00a0 Dr. Avouris also said that I.B.M. is not certain what the company would do to commercialize the new technology.<\/p>\n<p><a
