(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 ...

Boffins have emerged from their smoke-filled labs, claiming to have created a new type of transistor that can dissipate almost zero heat. This transistor promises to slash energy usage in future ...

The transistor, invented at Bell Labs in 1947, replaced bulky vacuum tubes and enabled the miniaturization revolution that created modern electronics.

There’s always some debate around what style of architecture is best for certain computing applications, with some on the RISC side citing performance per watt and some on the CISC side ...

As transistors are scaled to smaller dimensions, their static power increases. Combining two-dimensional (2D) channel materials with complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) logic architectures ...

Researchers at the University of Maryland, College Park have printed transparent transistors on transparent paper. The finished device is flexible, up to 84% transparent, and in theory this could be ...

The humble inventions that power our modern world wouldn’t have been possible without decades of support for early-stage ...
