A RIKEN study shows that squeezing the right amount of potassium ions between the atomic layers of molybdenum disulfide can turn it from a semiconductor into a metal, superconductor or insulator. The ...
The next generation of microelectronics relies on radical improvements in transistor switching performance to advance ...
A friend recently sent me an email noting that the classic 2N3904 bipolar transistor was now 60 years old. Since its “birth” was before I got involved with basic electronics, that callout was ...
When you think of Sony, you probably think of a technology company that’s been around forever. However, as [Asianometry] points out, it really formed in the tough years after World War II. The two ...
In electrical circuits, transistors switch or amplify electric signals, but researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have swapped in electrical signals for biological ones, using three ...
Nanoscale 3D transistors made from ultrathin semiconductor materials can operate more efficiently than silicon-based devices, leveraging quantum mechanical properties to potentially enable ...
Superconducting transistor quantum computing reaches a milestone: Finnish startup S-Transistors, spun from VTT, raised 2.6 ...
