As far as transistor size is concerned, it doesn't get any smaller than this. An international group of researchers from the Helsinki University of Technology, the University of New South Wales and ...

A newly developed optical transistor could be the key to higher-performance CPUs and a leap forward toward a practical quantum computer.

Bioengineers have taken computing beyond mechanics and electronics into the living realm of biology. Scientists have used a biological transistor made from genetic material -- DNA and RNA -- in ...

A team of Swedish researchers reached a groundbreaking development -- they made a fully functional wooden transistor.

But in placing a single-atom transistor on a silicon crystal -- and carefully isolating it from the surrounding substrate -- it provides a clearer path to a working quantum computer.

New Transistor Could Keep Computer Evolution On Track Date: December 13, 2000 Source: Purdue University Summary: Purdue University engineers have new information contradicting the most dire ...

Every few years, we hear about someone building a computer from first principles. This doesn’t mean getting a 6502 or Z80, wiring it up, and running BASIC. I’m talking about builds from… ...

Researchers have created the first-ever 16x16 array of ionic transistors that operate in an aqueous electrolytic solution. This demonstrates the potential of aqueous ionics to enable new low-power, ...

Researchers have developed innovative mechanical transistors that combine temperature-responsive materials and switchable structures, enabling complex logic operations and memory storage without ...

A team of Stanford University bioengineers has taken computing beyond mechanics and electronics into the living realm of biology. In a paper to be published March 28 in Science, the team details a ...

IBM, Samsung Tout New Vertical Transistor for Future Computer Chips The companies announce a new 'VTFET' transistor design to help sustain Moore's Law for years to come.
