In this lesson, students build two circuits and explore how transistors function. When Bell Labs introduced the transistor in June of 1948, a spokesman proudly announced "This cylindrical object . . .

As computing demands grow, driven by artificial intelligence and the internet of things, the need for energy-efficient electronics becomes critical. At the heart of this evolution are transistors, the ...

Forward-looking: The billions of transistors hidden within a single CPU are manufactured to execute just one specific function. A team of Viennese scientists, however, aims to introduce ...

Why silk is being used for bio-compatible transistors. How the silk is transformed to develop the transistor function. The two types of operation provided by the silk-based transistor. Silicon and ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) For new generation electronic appliances advanced nanoscale transistors are in demand which needs precise biasing of each device. These stringent biasing conditions can be relaxed ...

A recent Design Idea presents a circuit to measure an airflow rate up to 2000 fpm using two transistors in a Darlington configuration. One transistor works as a self-heated thermal sensor and the ...

Advances in materials and architecture could lead to silicon-free chip manufacturing thanks to a new type of transistor.

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. - Put the inventor of the light-emitting diode and the maker of the world's fastest transistor together in a research laboratory and what kinds of bright ideas might surface? One ...
