Shrinking computers, faster phones, and smarter gadgets all rely on one tiny component: the transistor. Invented in the 20th ...

A new type of transistor can dissipate almost zero heat — slashing energy usage in future quantum computers by up to 1,000 times and paving the way for massively scaled-up machines. The ...

Researchers at Linköping University and the KTH Royal Institute of Technology have developed the world’s first transistor made of wood. Their study, published in the journal PNAS, paves the way ...

have managed to develop an early version of a wood electrochemical transistor (WECT) that appears to be the first of its kind ever logged. Though these wood chips are quite different to the ...

Self-driving cars that glide through cities without ever hitting traffic, virtual doctors diagnosing you instantly at home, ...

Researchers at Pennsylvania State University have developed the world’s first computer using atomically thin 2D materials, a ...

A group of researchers from the University of Arizona, The Jet Propulsion Laboratories of the California Institute of Technology and Ludwig-Maximilians-University of Munich have created the first ...

the researchers used a laser that switches off and on at a rate of 638 attoseconds to create what Hassan called “the world’s fastest petahertz quantum transistor.” A transistor is a device that acts ...

Silicon is king in the semiconductor technology that underpins smartphones, computers, electric vehicles and more, but its ...

The university is already known for the world's fastest microscope and would now like it to be known for the world's first transistor of its kind, said Mohammed Hassan, an associate professor of ...

"The University of Arizona is already known for the world's fastest electron microscope, and we would also like to be known for the first petahertz-speed transistor." More information: Mohamed ...

The new type of transistor, known as the "cryo-CMOS transistor," is optimized to operate at temperatures under 1 K and emit near-zero heat. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn ...
