Researchers at the University of Alberta are reporting a breakthrough in the development of molecular transistors, devices that function on the atomic scale and could lead to a quantum leap in ...

Take a moment to consider the most basic common base amplifier. The transistor’s base is held at a constant bias potential, its emitter forms the amplifier’s input, and the collector its output.

The classic transistor amplifier circuit then has a pair of resistors in series between supply and ground, forming a potential divider that gives the base its bias.

Basic transistor flaw could hobble chip design Researchers at the US National Institute of Science and Technology have thrown doubt on accepted rules, threatening the future of nano-scale transistors.

We mostly taught ourselves.” Pollack's engineers at Polarad weren't the only ones who needed knowledge of transistors. Seeing that need, Electrical Design News published a four-part series on ...

Gallium nitride transistors have emerged as a high-performance alternative to silicon-based transistors, thanks to the technology's ability to be made allow smaller device sizes for a given on ...

Solid-state device technologies, which are available to the amplifier designer, fall, broadly, into three categories: bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) ...

Transistors work using the same basic principles of their predecessor technology, the vacuum tube. The basic idea of both is to provide some way to toggle the device between an on position and an ...

SiC Transistor History How has the SiC transistor evolved? u2028Adoption of SiC semiconductors has been limited by substrate costs, the material’s physical idiosyncrasies and defect density.

The basic rules by which chips are being designed could be wrong, physicists have warned. Researchers at the US National Institute of Science and Technology have warned that a flaw exists in ...
