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 ...

Sometimes, the parts list says it all. 777 transistors, 1223 resistors, 136 LEDs, 455 crimp connectors, 41 protoboards and 500 grams of solder. That’s what went into this transistor logic clock build.

Duke engineers show how a common device architecture used to test 2D transistors overstates their performance prospects in real-world devices.

These prototype processors made from atomically thin materials offer a glimpse into a post-silicon-transistor future, but scaling challenges remain. Read the paper: A complementary two-dimensional ...

Researchers used advanced electron ptychography to visualize atomic-scale defects inside modern transistors. The technique ...

A bioelectronic engineer, Klas Tybrandt of Linkoping University in Sweden, has built the first "ion transistor" computer chip, which uses chemical ions and biological molecules as charge carriers ...

Engineers are starting to build hardware that does not just run artificial intelligence, it behaves like a primitive form of it. Instead of long chains of conventional transistors, researchers are ...

In a bold challenge to silicon s long-held dominance in electronics, Penn State researchers have built the world s first working CMOS computer entirely from atom-thin 2D materials. Using molybdenum ...

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 ...

Cornell researchers have used advanced electron microscopy to identify "mouse bite" defects in 3D transistors for the first time ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) In the field of computing, the electronic transistor has long been the dominant technology. Since its invention in 1947, this tiny device has become the foundation of modern ...
