Transistors that can change properties are important elements in the development of tomorrow's semiconductors. With standard transistors approaching the limit for how small they can be, having more ...

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 ...

In this lesson, students build two circuits and explore how transistors function. When Bell Labs introduced the transistor in June of 1948, a spokesman proudly announced "This cylindrical object . . .

(Nanowerk Spotlight) For new generation electronic appliances advanced nanoscale transistors are in demand which needs precise biasing of each device. These stringent biasing conditions can be relaxed ...

What is a Programmable Unijunction Transistor (PUT)? Simple – it is a three-lead electronic semiconductor device, similar to a unijunction transistor (UJT), except that its behaviour can be controlled ...

75 years ago this month, research scientists working at Bell Labs first created, then unveiled to the world a new device—the point contact transistor. Some call it the greatest invention of the 20th ...
