If you open up the perennial favourite electronics textbook The Art Of Electronics and turn to the section on transistors, you will see a little cartoon. A transistor is shown as a room in which ...

Power bipolar transistors are semiconductors in which a base n-type or p–type layer is sandwiched between emitter and collector layers of the opposite type. There are two polarities available: PNP and ...

Transistors that can change properties are important elements in the development of tomorrow's semiconductors. With standard transistors approaching the limit for how small they can be, having more ...

Kyoto University researchers have demonstrated a silicon carbide transistor capable of operating at temperatures up to 600°C, ...

Moore’s Law is stalling in the face of the physical limits of what can be done with silicon. Now a new kind of transistor design promises to keep it alive for a little longer—though the chip industry ...

MIT researchers have engineered bacteria that can function as transistors, allowing the team to create living "circuit boards" that can be printed onto a growth medium in a Petri dish.
