Researchers have developed a single-atom transistor, the world's smallest. This quantum electronics component switches electrical current by controlled repositioning of a single atom, now also in the ...

A common lab setup can inflate 2D transistor performance by up to five times, raising questions about how future chips are ...

For nearly two decades, two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors have been studied as a complement or possible successor to silicon transistors, promising smaller, faster and more energy-efficient ...

New modeling reveals how strain and high-k dielectrics mitigate phonon scattering in ultra-scaled MoS2 transistors, enhancing performance in nanometre devices.

IIIF provides researchers rich metadata and media viewing options for comparison of works across cultural heritage collections. Visit the IIIF page to learn more. During World War Two scientists and ...

The ashes of microelectronics legend Chih-Tang Sah (Sa Zhitang), whose inventions underpin nearly all modern semiconductor chips, have been transported from the US to his ancestral province of Fujian ...
