Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it's a semiconductor, this ...

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 ...

Key TakeawaysBerkeley Lab scientists showed a novel way to build advanced transistors decades before similar structures ...

IBM on Monday will unveil what it says is the world's tiniest working transistor. Big Blue's IBM Research group will announce the new transistor at the International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM) in ...

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 ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) For new generation electronic appliances advanced nanoscale transistors are in demand which needs precise biasing of each device. These stringent biasing conditions can be relaxed ...

Although many scientists contributed along the way, it was three men who really brought the transistor to life, and each played a different role: the thinker, the tinkerer, and the visionary. John ...

The big picture: The global company showed how it plans to continue increasing transistor density over the next several years. It also believes that the semiconductor industry will transition to ...
