Altering the very fabric of technophilic society, a multinational team of material scientists have created electric circuits and transistors out of cotton fibers. Two kinds of transistor were created: ...

A new method enables 2D-material semiconductor transistors to be directly integrated onto a fully fabricated 8-inch silicon wafer, which could enable a new generation of transistor technology, denser ...

Bioengineers at Stanford University have created the first biological transistor made from genetic materials: DNA and RNA. Dubbed the "transcriptor," this biological transistor is the final component ...

The production of semiconductors, also known as chips, has become a strategic priority in Europe as well as the United States, after the shock of the pandemic choked ...

A limiting problem in creating energy-efficient circuits for improved memory and more powerful computers is manufacturing a transistor with reconfigurable properties. As the size of transistors ...

Transistors are tiny electronic components that act as switches and amplifiers, and they dwell at the heart of modern technology. In simple terms, a transistor can turn a flow of electricity on or off ...

Engineers are starting to build hardware that does not just run artificial intelligence, it behaves like a primitive form of ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA – Silicon transistors, which are used to amplify and switch signals, are a critical component in most electronic devices, from smartphones to automobiles. But silicon semiconductor ...

In a nutshell: Back in 2021, a team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology made waves by creating an entirely new type of ferroelectric material. Now, those same researchers have one-upped ...

At the Forschungszentrum Jülich, a new kind of transistor from germanium–tin alloy has been fabricated by scientists. The alloy comes with numerous benefits over traditional switching elements. The ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA — Emerging AI applications, like chatbots that generate natural human language, demand denser, more powerful computer chips. But semiconductor chips are traditionally made with bulk ...

(Nanowerk News) Emerging artificial intelligence (AI) applications, like chatbots that generate natural human language, demand denser, more powerful computer chips. But semiconductor chips are ...
