Startup S-Transistor says it can make superconducting transistors at scale ...

MIT engineers have developed a magnetic transistor that could pave the way for smaller, faster, and more efficient electronics. By replacing silicon with a magnetic semiconductor, the team created a ...

Every computer chip is built from a switch smaller than anything the human eye can resolve, and for decades engineers have ...

In a nutshell: Back in 2021, a team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology made waves by creating an entirely new type of ferroelectric material. Now, those same researchers have one-upped ...

A new approach could help make future AI chips smaller and more energy-efficient. A KAIST-led research team has used a single ...

“Three-terminal thermal analogies to electrical transistors have been proposed for use in thermal amplification, thermal switching, or thermal logic, but have not yet been demonstrated experimentally.

The next generation of microelectronics relies on improvements in transistor switching performance to advance computing power. However, conventional ...

Scientists from the University of Washington have designed custom proteins that can switch between two fully structured conformations. By coupling this molecular motion with a binding event, these ...

The act of a transistor changing its state from on to off or off to on. Also called a "transistor state change," the number of transistor toggles that take place within a computer, tablet or ...
