As a part of JST PRESTO program, associate professor Masaharu Kobayashi, Institute of industrial Science, The University of Tokyo, has experimentally clarified the operation mechanism of low voltage ...

Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) technology is a vital part of modern electronics, used in designing and manufacturing integrated circuits (ICs) that power many digital devices. CMOS ...

Researchers successfully print and demonstrate organic transistors, electronic switches, which can operate close to their theoretical speed limits. They showed high-speed operation only requires low ...

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 ...

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — A new type of transistor structure, invented by scientists at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, has broken the 600 gigahertz speed barrier. The goal of a terahertz ...

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 ...

A transistor is a tiny but powerful electronic component that acts like a switch or an amplifier. It is made from a semiconductor material, usually silicon, and has three legs for connection to ...

Researchers create transistors combining silicon with biological silk, using common microprocessor manufacturing methods. The silk protein can be easily modified with other chemical and biological ...

The first generation of GaN transistors has yielded efficient devices that operate at 600V with turn-on and turn-off times of 3.5 nsec and 7.0 nsec, respectively. Switching times are improved through ...

On a physical level, a transistor’s internal functioning is very complex, but, in practice, using it in some simple experiments is quite easy and affordable for everyone. A transistor allows to create ...
