Nearly every piece of technology you use—from smartphones to computers—relies on one revolutionary component: the transistor.

With transistors and logic gates as our basic building blocks, we can begin to construct the actual circuits that make up computer memory. One of the simplest memory circuits is the AND gate, which ...

Without transistors the modern world would simply not exist. But how do they work, and how do modern, atomic sized versions compare with the originals? The word "transitor" has become almost invisible ...

Transistors are a type of semiconductor device that regulates the flow of electric current and voltage. From amplifying sound signals to enabling wireless communication, they are essential components ...

Engineers propose a built-in security measure that would better protect computer chip hardware from hackers. A hacker can reproduce a circuit on a chip by discovering what key transistors are doing in ...

Researchers developed new synaptic transistors that can mimic the human brain's plasticity by simultaneously processing and storing data. After connecting transistors into a device, researchers ...
