The transistor laser, invented by scientists at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, has been full of surprises. Researchers recently coaxed the device to reveal fundamental properties of ...

A team of engineers has developed a transistor made from linen thread, enabling them to create electronic devices made entirely of thin threads that could be woven into fabric, worn on the skin, or ...

Integrated circuits (ICs) serve as the basis of computers, tablets, smartphones, and other technology that enhances our daily life. For around 60 years, those circuits have been made from silicon with ...

A single transistor. Discrete transistors are used in myriad applications from low to high power. Early transistors were always discrete, and then they were built into integrated circuits (chips). See ...

Transistors will stop shrinking after 2021, but Moore’s law will probably continue, according to the final International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS). The ITRS—which has been produced ...
