Solution-based processing of a field-effect transistor from inorganic nanocrystals. How many transistors did they make? Do they think this can scale up to numbers required for modern devices? For ...
In the same way that a pillow filled with pebbles is harder to get smooth than one stuffed with sand, chip makers are finding it harder to make transistors behave predictably as they shrink. Here, the ...
Physicists at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Sydney, Australia, have created a working transistor consisting of a single atom placed precisely in a silicon crystal. The device (Fig. 1), ...
Electronic devices like computers and smartphones are continually getting thinner and smaller. One of the challenges to thinner and smaller devices in the future is reducing the size of the internal ...
Main game is to stick as many floating-point (or more recently reduced integer) arithmetic units as you can to increase the number of math operations you can do in parallel. LLMs are just giant ...
Intel drew the curtain Friday on some of its future research projects to continue making transistors smaller, faster, and less power-hungry out as far as 2020. Intel drew the curtain Friday on some of ...
Chipmaking giants like Intel, Samsung, and TSMC see a future where key parts of silicon transistors are replaced with semiconductors that are only a few atoms thick. Although they’ve reported progress ...

What Makes a Transistor So Powerful?

Transistors are tiny components that act as switches and amplifiers in nearly every electronic device. This video breaks down ...
(Nanowerk News) Smaller chips, faster computers, less energy consumption. Novel concepts based on semiconductor nanowires are expected to make transistors in microelectronic circuits better and more ...
In this lesson, students search for transistor-based devices at school. They use the results of their search to explain the significance of the transistor in their lives. A transistor is a tiny device ...
