The age of silicon and software began 75 years ago with the patenting of the transistor
Bell Labs scientists behind the invention of the transistor would, at last, have the U.S. Patent in their hands.
There are many applications today using high voltage MOSFETs and IGBTs, which would benefit from a higher voltage part. Examples are sweep circuits, radar pulse modulators, capacitor discharge ...

What Is a Transistor, and How Does It Work?
Transistors are tiny electronic components that act as switches and amplifiers, and they dwell at the heart of modern technology. In simple terms, a transistor can turn a flow of electricity on or off ...
A new technical review paper titled “The Schottky barrier transistor in emerging electronic devices” was published by researchers at THM University of Applied Sciences, Chalmers University of ...
Figure 1: A highly thermostable organic transistor manufactured on a thin plastic film. The team succeeded in building a low drive-voltage and a high thermostable organic circuit on a plastic film by ...
Metal-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors (MESFETs) have long been pivotal in bridging fundamental semiconductor physics with high-performance electronic applications. As devices that combine metal ...
