When we were in school, every description of how transistors work was pretty dry and had a lot of math involved. We suppose you might have had a great instructor who was able to explain things ...

Understanding these operations is key to understanding how transistors work and contribute to the complex world of electronics. The source acts as the emitter filament of an electron tube; the drain ...

If you’re interested in semiconductors and how transistors work on an atomic level, [DeepSOIC]’s project will keep you on the edge of your seat. On the other hand, if you’re new to the field ...

Bell Labs gave its scientists the freedom to pursue basic research -- if they hadn't, the transistor would never have been invented. But the company's main goal was still to put inventions like ...

One way to understand how transistors work is by comparing them with a garden hose with a kink in it. Positively charging the transistor acts like un-bending the hose, permitting the flow of ...

The transistors being made by Bell just didn't work the same way twice, and on top of that, they were noisy. While one lab at Bell was trying to improve those first type-A transistors, William ...

Ultrathin nanoscale 3D transistors made out of advanced semiconductor materials operate more efficiently than silicon-based ...

Nanoscale 3D transistors made from ultrathin semiconductor materials can operate more efficiently than silicon-based devices, leveraging quantum mechanical properties to potentially enable ...
