Australian researchers have discovered that negative capacitance could lower the energy used in electronics and computing, which represents 8% of global electricity demand. The researchers at four ...

Negative capacitance field-effect transistors (NCFETs) represent a transformative approach in the design of low-power electronic devices. By integrating ferroelectric materials into the gate structure ...

(Nanowerk News) As our electronics continue to proliferate and become more sophisticated, the race continues for more power efficient and scaleable semiconductor devices — components that use minimal ...

Researchers have built working transistors from graphene nanoribbons less than a nanometer wide, achieving room-temperature ...

This research presents a new dual-gate design strategy that enables stable operation even in nanoscale channels,” said Jae ...

Over the past century, electronic engineering has improved massively. In the 1920s, a state-of-the-art AM radio contained several vacuum tubes, a few enormous inductors, capacitors and resistors, ...

Berkeley — Computers may be growing smaller and more powerful, but they require a great deal of energy to operate. The total amount of energy the U.S. dedicates to computing has risen dramatically ...

Recent advances in semiconductor technology have pushed the concept of transistors with switching speeds greater than one terahertz, or one trillion cycles per second, closer to reality. Transistors ...

How the first transistor evolved to meet new and emerging application demands as underlying structures transform and multi-die systems gained further adoption. How transistors have enabled the ...
