Not there quite yet.
In comparison to early-80s ECL, how do you think the scaling curve
might match? I

There are a few bits t
The point that I was trying to make (admittedly REALLY badly) was
that this is not the 'next big thing' .
Did you read anything more than just that article?

I thought their 500 Ghz number was just for rediculous press teasing,
like the people who use lHe t

Read the article, not the headline. They got 350GHz at room
temperature (which is a lot more interesting than 500
