Researchers at Penn State University (PSU) led by Dr. Saptarshi Das, Ackley Professor of Engineering Science and Mechanics have developed high performance p-type field effect transistors (FETs ...

The simplest FET for demonstration purposes has a piece of N-type semiconductor with source and drain connections at opposite ends, and a zone of P-type semiconductor deposited in its middle.

Instead of being a sandwich, MOSFETs have a channel of either N- or P- type semiconductor running through a ridge on top of the other type. As a voltage is applied to this channel, it creates an ...

Bardeen, Brattain and Shockley had tested various combinations of p-type and n-type semiconductors under different conditions until they finally found a configuration that would allow a thin layer of ...

Two slices of N-type semiconductor, the emitter and the collector, form a sandwich with a layer of P-type semiconductor, called the base. P- and N-type semiconductors are made with different ...

Transistors are typically categorized as n-type (electron transport) and p-type (hole transport), with n-type devices generally demonstrating superior performance. However, to achieve a high speed ...

"Our integrated artificial nerve, which contains vertical n-type and p-type organic electrochemical transistors, offers sensing, processing and memory functions in the high-frequency domain ...
