Amorphous oxide semiconductors like IGZO (indium gallium zinc oxide) offer acceptable carrier mobility with very low leakage.

Scientists have designed a transistor that stores and processes information like the human brain and can perform cognitive tasks that most artificial intelligence (AI) systems today struggle with.

(Nanowerk News) University at Buffalo researchers are reporting a new, two-dimensional transistor made of graphene and the compound molybdenum disulfide that could help usher in a new era of computing ...

Finnish company Semiqon has developed a transistor that operates with virtually zero heat dissipation. They have made silicon-based quantum processors to make future quantum computers more affordable, ...

Consumer devices, from light bulbs to iPods, send information using electrons. Human bodies and all other living things, on the other hand, send signals and perform tasks using ions or protons. In a ...

Recent advances in semiconductor technology have pushed the concept of transistors with switching speeds greater than one terahertz, or one trillion cycles per second, closer to reality. Transistors ...
