Transistors are a dime a dozen—or maybe a dime a billion. When it comes to designing a state-of-the-art mobile device or a high-performance server, it’s how you put the transistors together that ...

Researchers at the IMEC research institute in Belgium are developing a transistor with a gate width of 22nm (0.022µm) and a gate thickness of 0.5nm to test out new materials for future commercial chip ...

Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it's a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has ...

A small transistor that can accurately detect tiny traces of RNA from SARS-CoV-2 could herald a new breed of rapid COVID-19 screening tests (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2021, DOI: 10.1021/jacs.1c06325).

December 10, 2012. Silicon’s crown is under threat: The semiconductor’s days as the king of microchips for computers and smart devices could be numbered, thanks to the development of the smallest ...
