Researchers from the University of New South Wales have achieved an astonishing feat: the first-ever creation of a working transistor from a single atom. Since 1954, when Texas Instruments scientist, ...

Wood isn’t usually very good at conducting electricity, but now scientists have created the first functional wooden transistor. It’s not the best, and it requires some processing, but it does work and ...

Physicists at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Sydney, Australia, have created a working transistor consisting of a single atom placed precisely in a silicon crystal. The device (Fig. 1), ...

Less than a week following the announcement of IBM’s miraculous 7-nm chip-ready transistor, another microscopic transistor made headlines — this one is made up of a single molecule plus smidgen of ...

IBM has created graphene transistors that leave silicon ones in the dust. The prototype devices, made from atom-thick sheets of carbon, operate at 100 gigahertz–meaning they can switch on and off 100 ...

Perovskites have received a lot of attention as semiconductor materials for solar cells because they’re efficient, inexpensive, and easy to make. But designing transistors, the fundamental component ...

University of Arizona physicists have discovered how to turn single molecules into working transistors. University of Arizona physicists have discovered how to turn single molecules into working ...
