Data doesn’t have to travel as far or waste as much energy when the memory and logic components are closer together.

Microprocessors in smartphones, computers, and data centers process information by manipulating electrons through solid semiconductors, but our brains have a different system. They rely on the ...

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 ...

Researchers outline the first practical demonstration of carbon nanotube transistor based printed circuits for display backplane applications revealing CNT's viable candidacy as a competing technology ...

Researchers previously reported a self-aligned technique for making graphene transistors with unparalleled speed, but scalability was a question. The team now uses a dielectrophoresis assembly ...

Over the recent weeks here at Hackaday, we’ve been taking a look at the humble transistor. In a series whose impetus came from a friend musing upon his students arriving with highly developed ...

Editor's Note: The following tutorial is one of a series of six on transistor theory by Howard Skolnik, retired Burr-Brown designer. Skolnik and Bob Dobkin, CTO of Linear Technology, will be our ...

(Nanowerk News) Graphene, a one-atom-thick layer of graphitic carbon, has the potential to make consumer electronic devices faster and smaller. But its unique properties, and the shrinking scale of ...
