“Ferroelectric field-effect transistors employ a ferroelectric material as a gate insulator, the polarization state of which can be detected using the channel conductance of the device. As a result, ...

A semiconductor amplifying device with up to 100-meg input impedance is now available from an American manufacturer. (Some French firms already have announced field-effect devices.) Crystalonics, ...

A research team has developed an n-channel diamond MOSFET (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor). The developed n-channel diamond MOSFET provides a key step toward CMOS (complementary ...

A graphene layer consists of carbon atoms linked by covalent bonds, forming a honeycomb structure. Its excellent electron mobility, chemical and physical stability, electrical and thermal conductivity ...

Beyond-silicon technology demands ultra-high-performance field-effect transistors (FETs). Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) provide an ideal material platform, but the device performances such ...

With the right mix of materials, TFETs promise cooler, smaller, and more efficient circuits for everything from the Internet of Things to brain-inspired computers. But before they can leave the lab, ...

WASHINGTON, December 21, 2021 -- Demand for sensitive and selective electronic biosensors -- analytical devices that monitor a target of interest in real time -- is growing for a wide range of ...

The formula for a perovskite compound is typically expressed as ABX3. These are crystalline structures that bond two cations ("A" and "B", divalent metal ion) to an anion ("X"); the "B" atoms tend to ...

A transistor is a tiny but powerful electronic component that acts like a switch or an amplifier. It is made from a semiconductor material, usually silicon, and has three legs for connection to ...

At the December 2021 IEDM conference (a conference for people who design advanced semiconductors), IBM announced it was turning transistors on their heads to keep Moore’s Law scaling alive. The new ...
