If you ever work with a circuit that controls a decent amount of current, you will often encounter a FET – a Field-Effect Transistor. Whether you want to control a couple of powerful LEDs, sw… ...

Motorola develops a dual-gate transistor in which the two gates can switch on and off independently--a twist the company says could increase performance and reduce power consumption.

To get a functioning transistor, however, you need more than just a semiconductor like MoS 2: you need a gate to control whether it conducts or not. To get something of the appropriate size, the ...

A technical paper titled “Gate Drive Circuit Suitable for a GaN Gate Injection Transistor” was published by researchers at Nagoya University. “A GaN gate injection transistor (GIT) has great potential ...

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 ...

So, Peng’s team decided not to shrink the old design any further. They scrapped it altogether. Their new transistor uses a gate-all-around field-effect transistor (GAAFET) structure.

Lesson 4 Using Transistors: Let’s Get Transistorized! Overview In this lesson, students build two circuits and explore how transistors function. Objectives • To observe how a transistor ...

The tri-gate transistors use rectangular silicon channels that stick up from the surface of the chip, allowing the gate to contact the channel on three sides, instead of just one.

Back in 2018 we reported on the first silicon integrated circuit to be produced in a homemade chip fab. It was the work of [Sam Zeloof], and his Z1 chip was a modest six-transistor amplifier. Not ...
