In a significant advancement for semiconductor technology, researchers at UC Santa Barbara have unveiled novel three-dimensional (3D) transistors utilizing two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors. Their ...

The new bismuth-based transistor could revolutionize chip design, offering higher efficiency while bypassing silicon’s limitations.

A team of researchers at Peking University claims to have shattered chip performance limits and proven that China can use new materials to “change lanes” in the semiconductor race by ...

For decades, the semiconductor industry has been laser-focused on shrinking silicon transistors, but Peking University researchers believe the future might lie in changing materials entirely.

Return of the gigahertz wars: New Chinese transistor uses bismuth instead of silicon to potentially sock it to Intel and TSMC with 40% more speed ...

Cambridge GaN Devices has patented a technique for lowering losses in 100kW+ IGBT-based vehicle traction drives, at lower cost than all-silicon-carbide inverters, it said. It involves connecting GaN ...

In 1958, the first integrated circuit flip-flop was built using two transistors at Texas Instruments. The chips of today contain more than 1 billion transistors. The memory that could once support an ...

Carbon nanotube transistors are finally making progress for potential use in advanced logic chips after nearly a quarter century in R&D. The question now is whether they will move out of the lab and ...
