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 ...

The humble inventions that power our modern world wouldn’t have been possible without decades of support for early-stage ...

Transistors could switch on and off faster, last longer, and run on lower voltages than tubes.

A transistor made using two atomically thin materials sets size record A key transistor component is made from the edge of a sheet of graphene.

The first commercial product to use transistors was the hearing aid, made in 1952. Fortune magazine declared 1953 the “Year of the Transistor,” and, by 1954, Texas Instruments had introduced ...

As a result, their device could rapidly and efficiently switch between two possible logic states – making for an ideal optical transistor. Faster and less power Compared with the latest electrical ...

Researchers have reported a black phosphorus transistor that can be used as an alternative ultra-low power switch. A research team developed a thickness-controlled black phosphorous tunnel field ...

Researchers have demonstrated a new material for single-molecule electronic switches, which can effectively vary current at the nanoscale in response to external stimuli. The material for this ...
