20 December 2023 2D materials ratchet up biorealism in computing A transistor made from atomically thin materials mimics the way in which connections between neurons are strengthened by activity.

The new device consists of an asymmetric structure made up of two layers of graphene and a layer of hexagonal boron nitride. (Courtesy: Xiaodong Yan, Northwestern University) Researchers at ...

One transistor by itself is interesting, but the true power of the transistor shows itself when we put a ton of them together. This is where integrated circuits (ICs) and microchips enter the picture.

A team of Swedish researchers reached a groundbreaking development -- they made a fully functional wooden transistor.

A newly developed optical transistor could be the key to higher-performance CPUs and a leap forward toward a practical quantum computer.

Bioengineers have taken computing beyond mechanics and electronics into the living realm of biology. Scientists have used a biological transistor made from genetic material -- DNA and RNA -- in ...

Scientists create a single-electron transistor: A big step for quantum computing? University of Pittsburgh researchers built a single-electron transistor made of oxide-based materials.

Researchers have created a transistor with a functional 1-nanometer gate, which they are claiming is the smallest working transistor yet made.
