Cambridge, MA – Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it’s a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But ...
Researchers built a four-atom-thick transistor combining an atomically thin semiconductor and molecular crystal. It uses charge localization and works at room temperature. (Nanowerk News) The ability ...
What does 5nm even mean? It’s not about tiny ants, but it is a big deal for how your gadgets work. The size, measured in ...
Researchers in China say they have created a new silicon-free transistor that could significantly boost performance while reducing energy consumption. The team says this development represents a new ...

What is a Programmable Unijunction Transistor (PUT)? Simple – it is a three-lead electronic semiconductor device, similar to a unijunction transistor (UJT), except that its behaviour can be controlled ...
We rely on impurities called dopants to adjust the behavior of silicon circuitry. Now, researchers have demonstrated a transistor that's nothing more than a single dopant atom. I'm looking forward to ...
A new device concept opens the door to compact, high-performance transistors with built-in memory. (Nanowerk News) Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon ...
