A transistor made using two atomically thin materials sets size record A key transistor component is made from the edge of a sheet of graphene.

For more than a decade, engineers have been eyeing the finish line in the race to shrink the size of components in integrated circuits. They knew that the laws of physics had set a 5-nanometer ...

[Simon Inns] has put together a lesson in digital logic which shows you how to build your own gates using transistors. The image above is a full-adder that he fabricated, then combined with other ...

The fun part about logic gates is that there are so many ways to make them, with each approach having its own advantages and disadvantages. Although these days transistor-transistor logic (TTL) is ...

In traditional computing, these gates are made using transistors, which are semiconductor devices that can switch electronic signals on and off.

At Semicon West 2013, the annual mecca for chipmakers and their capital equipment manufacturers, Applied Materials has detailed the road beyond 14nm, all the way down to 3nm and possibly beyond.

In logic devices such as finFETs (field-effect transistors), metal gate parasitic capacitance can negatively impact electrical performance. One way to reduce this parasitic capacitance is to optimize ...

The transistor that the team developed works when the single molecule is surrounded by charged atoms that operate as the gate. The results of the research will be published in the August 2015 ...
