Rather than carry around your phone, you may soon wear it on your sleeve with nanolasers that are currently under development. A spaser, which is basically a laser on the nanoscale, could revolutionize cell phone technology by making it so small that phones could be printed on clothes. The spaser would replace traditional transistor-based devices like microprocessors, memory, and displays and would allow the technology to become miniature by comparison. Plus, these spasers would be made out of graphene and carbon nanotubes, which are more resource and eco-friendly than their current counterparts.
