A transistor normally requires several fundamentally different materials—a semiconductor to carry current, an insulating ...

Scientists have created an experimental electronic component that can both remember earlier signals and process new ones, ...

Wood isn’t usually very good at conducting electricity, but now scientists have created the first functional wooden transistor. It’s not the best, and it requires some processing, but it does work and ...

A Brief History The first transistor, invented at Bell Labs in 1947, was a handmade device about half an inch tall—enormous by today’s standards, when billions fit on a single chip. On December 23, ...

Siemens (XTRA:SIE) and IBM have agreed to work together on nanostack transistor technology for next generation semiconductor ...

Researchers at South Korea's Institute for Basic Science chemically converted a single tungsten diselenide crystal into a ...

Researchers have shown that solution-processed niobium carbide MXene electrodes deliver cleaner, lower-resistance contacts ...

Engineers at MIT have demonstrated that vertical three-dimensional transistor architectures, built with features as small as 2.5 nanometers across, can pack tens of billions of devices onto a single ...

Transistors in some circuit configurations work together and, frequently, need to be matched. This is so common that you can sometimes find ICs that are just a pair of transistors made with the same ...

75 years ago this month, research scientists working at Bell Labs first created, then unveiled to the world a new device—the point contact transistor. Some call it the greatest invention of the 20th ...
