The production of transistors is a complex process and it needs a specialized environment (high temperature) and sophisticated equipment (capable of producing a high vacuum). To make the process of ...

Scientists made a single-molecule transistor using quantum interference to control electron flow. This new design offers high on/off ratio and stability, potentially leading to smaller, faster, and ...

Researchers built a four-atom-thick transistor combining an atomically thin semiconductor and molecular crystal. It uses charge localization and works at room temperature. (Nanowerk News) The ability ...

The first printed transistor made entirely from layered materials could pave the way for low-cost electronic devices to be fitted into billions of everyday objects. Printed electronics are already ...

The transistor is the unsung hero of modern life — powering everything from smartphones to satellites. But how did it begin? This video traces the fascinating origin of the transistor, the minds that ...
