Engineers from NIST have designed a new method for creating single-atom transistors that could advance the field of quantum computing.
Designing A New Transistor For Cheaper, Faster Wireless Communications
A new type of high-electron mobility transistor has been developed at the University of Delaware -- and it could help change wireless communications.
Optimizing Transistors To Save Energy
Scientists from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) have devised a new way to quickly and precisely determine defects in silicon carbide transistors.
World’s Smallest Transistor Is Finally Here
Big changes come in small sizes -- just ask the scientists behind the world's smallest transistor, and what it means for the future of electronics.
Extreme-Ultraviolet Technology Could Keep Moore’s Law Alive
Intel’s co-founder Gordon Moore famously predicted in 1965 that the number of transistors per square inch on integrated circuits would continue to double every two years. His observation, dubbed “Moore’s Law” h... Read More...
Transistors Hunt Cancer Cells to Reduce Surgeries for Cancer Patients
Tiny transistors can detect whether tumors have spread to other parts of the body, which could eliminate unnecessary surgeries for up to 40 percent of breast cancer patients. Typically, when surgeons operate to remove tumors, they take samples to see how far the cancer has spread. This analysis can take up to a week, and often requires follow up surgery. Now, tiny sensors can get the same results in less than an hour.
IBM’s New Chip Proves Moore’s Law is Still Alive
IBM has just announced a milestone for the semiconductor industry that will enable 20 billion transistors to be placed on a chip the size of a fingernail. In 1965 Gordon Moore, co-founder of Intel, predicted th... Read More...
