The rapid advancement and diffusion of artificial intelligence (AI) systems, such as the machine learning models underpinning ...

As the global semiconductor industry enters the so-called 2-nanometer process era, the actual size of transistors—the core ...

Transistors etched into the latest processor designs now measure just a few nanometers across, placing them well below the ...

A research team has fabricated a functional computer chip using molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), a ...

However, in the early days of computing, the outcome was far from clear, as computing technology evolved through mechanical ...

A bioelectronic engineer, Klas Tybrandt of Linkoping University in Sweden, has built the first "ion transistor" computer chip, which uses chemical ions and biological molecules as charge carriers ...

Recent research at the Technion lays the ground for future high-performance alternatives to silicon in microelectronics. By stretching an oxide material at an atomic level, the researchers are able to ...

On Dec. 16, 1947, the future began with the invention of the transistor. A lab notebook indicates that researchers at Bell Telephone Laboratories first got the thing to work on this day 75 years ago.

Simulations show which 2D transistor designs best control leakage as devices shrink, helping guide future chip scaling below ...

The number of transistors on a computer chip doubles about every 18 months. This observation, known as Moore’s law, is a nightmare for semiconductor engineers, who are tasked with building chips that ...

In a nutshell: Back in 2021, a team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology made waves by creating an entirely new type of ferroelectric material. Now, those same researchers have one-upped ...
