On Oct. 3, 1950, three Bell Labs scientists received a patent for a "three-electrode circuit element" that would usher in the ...

Most electronic devices are powered by lithium-ion batteries, which have a limited density, meaning they can only store a ...

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 ...

A new nanostructure acts like a wire and switch that can, for the first time, control and direct the flow of quantum quasiparticles called excitons at room temperature.

MG India gave us a tour of its EV battery assembly shop within the carmaker''''s manufacturing plant in Halol, Gujarat. Tap ...

A single organic device reconfigures as transistor, rectifier and logic gate, offering compact circuits with higher ...

Growing III-V nano-ridge lasers directly on silicon sidesteps the complexities of existing integration methods and paves the way for scalable, cost-efficient photonic integrated circuit production.

Most people have a phone charger plugged in next to their bed, which they never bother to switch off at the wall - but is that risky to do?

The underlying thesis of increasing electronics efficiency is to harness electron spin to control the flow of electricity. It’s that spin that causes electrons to behave like magnets. The combination ...

The revelation that electrons in the single-atom-thick material known as graphene can act much like a frictionless fluid is a ...

A team of researchers from Boston College has created a new metallic specimen where the motion of electrons flows in the same way water flows in a pipe—fundamentally changing from particle-like to ...
