Building things in a lab is easy, at least when compared to scaling up for mass production. That’s why there are so many articles about fusion being right around the corner, or battery technology that ...

To achieve the power, performance, and area (PPA) advantages dictated by Moore’s law, transistors have evolved substantially over the years. The development of planar transistors at Fairchild ...

This review introduces promising semiconductor materials for future transistors, including two-dimensional van der Waals materials, Mott insulators, halide perovskites, and amorphous oxides, with ...

In 1782, Alessandro Volta was the first to use the term "semiconducting" to describe the electrical properties of certain materials. In 1833, Michael Faraday observed that the resistance of silver ...

A transistor is a tiny but powerful electronic component that acts like a switch or an amplifier. It is made from a semiconductor material, usually silicon, and has three legs for connection to ...

In the field of semiconductor fabrication, high-k dielectrics represent a class of materials with a dielectric constant significantly higher than traditional silicon dioxide. These materials are ...
