Researchers have developed the first transistor made of wood. Their study paves the way for further development of wood-based electronics and control of electronic plants. Researchers at Linköping ...

Researchers from Linköping University in Sweden made a groundbreaking development: they created a functional transistor out of wood. This new transistor could pave the way for much more sustainable ...

A transistor fabricated from the crystalline phase of an organic semiconductor material could provide a path to improved switching speeds — rivalling those of devices built from inorganic materials ...

Researchers built a four-atom-thick transistor combining an atomically thin semiconductor and molecular crystal. It uses charge localization and works at room temperature. (Nanowerk News) The ability ...

A new unified model explains how thickness, defects, interface quality, and roughness together control the behavior of ...

Silicon chip manufacturers like Intel and TSMC are constantly outdoing themselves to make ever smaller features, but they are getting closer to the physical limits of silicon. “We already have very, ...

Bell Labs has created a tiny new transistor and discovered a way to whip it up in a laboratory beaker. On Thursday, the research arm of Lucent Technologies unveiled a new organic transistor--made from ...

Researchers have demonstrated a switch, analogous to a transistor, made from a single molecule called fullerene. By using a carefully tuned laser pulse, the researchers are able to use fullerene to ...
