The production of semiconductors, also known as chips, has become a strategic priority in Europe as well as the United States, after the shock of the pandemic choked ...

Transistors are tiny electronic components that act as switches and amplifiers, and they dwell at the heart of modern technology. In simple terms, a transistor can turn a flow of electricity on or off ...

(Nanowerk News) Emerging artificial intelligence (AI) applications, like chatbots that generate natural human language, demand denser, more powerful computer chips. But semiconductor chips are ...

Forward-looking: As manufacturers search for ways to extend the life of Moore's Law, building transistors only a few atoms thick – called 2D Materials – could be a path forward. Researchers are trying ...

A transistor fabricated from the crystalline phase of an organic semiconductor material could provide a path to improved switching speeds — rivalling those of devices built from inorganic materials ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA — Emerging AI applications, like chatbots that generate natural human language, demand denser, more powerful computer chips. But semiconductor chips are traditionally made with bulk ...

Modern computer chips contain billions of transistors etched onto a fingernail-sized piece of silicon. In fact, a typical smartphone processor now contains on the order of 15 billion transistors—a ...
