The intel microprocessors of the 1990s boosted computing power for the general population in a major way.  Now, they are researching quantum computing, over 1 billion people have smart phones and there may be another breakthrough structure in microprocessor design:

A new method of designing and building computer chips could lead to blisteringly quick processing at least 1,000 times faster than the best existing chips are capable of, researchers say.

The new method, which relies on materials called carbon nanotubes, allows scientists to build the chip in three dimensions.

Let’s find out more about this disruptive design on page 2
