Transistors could switch on and off faster, last longer, and run on lower voltages than tubes.

In the hacker and DIY community, there are people who have exceptional knowledge and fantastic tools. These people are able to do what others could only dream about, and that others can only browse… ...

The main thing is that the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg has now provided "the missing switch" that graphene transistors so desperately needed.

The first commercial product to use transistors was the hearing aid, made in 1952. Fortune magazine declared 1953 the “Year of the Transistor,” and, by 1954, Texas Instruments had introduced ...

Researchers have reported a black phosphorus transistor that can be used as an alternative ultra-low power switch. A research team developed a thickness-controlled black phosphorous tunnel field ...

As a result, their device could rapidly and efficiently switch between two possible logic states – making for an ideal optical transistor. Faster and less power Compared with the latest electrical ...

Researchers have demonstrated a new material for single-molecule electronic switches, which can effectively vary current at the nanoscale in response to external stimuli. The material for this ...

A transistor made using two atomically thin materials sets size record A key transistor component is made from the edge of a sheet of graphene.
