Researchers from Linköping University in Sweden made a groundbreaking development: they created a functional transistor out of wood.

This new transistor could pave the way for much more sustainable computing.

in search for that tree hugging PC 😂

Are we running out of sand to get silicon from?

no this is just about scoring some browny points

It is trans; It identifies as silicon.

We know of a few semiconductor materials. We've just really studied silicon and know how to make nano scale features on it.
