Will they be able to make chips from graphene?
................
Good question. Don’t know. There’s been a huge amount of smoke concerning graphene but so far its been just smoke. In any case the chip manufacturers won’t jump from current methods until they have to. That will come in about four years according to the article

Without a high yield, high production process using Extreme UV, the semiconductor area is in big trouble.

...

The last I looked, not a single commercial product is based on graphene. The only money being made is supplying graphene to researchers, but I think many make their own.

The nice thing about "Moore's Law" is that it's based on experience and past practice, rather than rooted in theory.
