On Oct. 3, 1950, three Bell Labs scientists received a patent for a "three-electrode circuit element" that would usher in the ...
Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it's a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has ...

MIT engineers built a magnetic transistor from chromium sulfur bromide, promising smaller, faster electronics with built-in ...
MIT researchers with colleagues from the University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague have used 2D CrSBr, a van der Waals ...
The smaller electronic components become, the more complex their manufacture becomes. This has been a major problem for the ...
An international team of researchers from Forschungszentrum Jülich (Germany), Tohoku University (Japan), and École ...
Our microelectronics relies on doped semiconductors. But there is an alternative: Instead of the semiconductor parts ...
Bell Labs scientists behind the invention of the transistor would, at last, have the U.S. Patent in their hands.
Today’s semiconductor workforce is already 43% smaller than it was in 2000, even as demand for chips has grown exponentially.
