WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — A hacker can reproduce a circuit on a chip by discovering what key transistors are doing in a circuit – but not if the transistor “type” is undetectable. Purdue University ...

Researchers from IBM, IMEC, Samsung, and TSMC will present their latest work on vertically-stacked complementary field-effect transistors (CFETs) at the upcoming International Electron Devices Meeting ...

This year's chart contains specifications for 1714 transistor types; last year, 1088 types were submitted for publication by semiconductor makers. With close to a 60% increase in the number of ...

Almost all computer chips use two types of transistors: one called p-type, for positive, and one called n-type, for negative. Improving the performance of the chip as a whole requires parallel ...

HONOLULU, Hawaii — At the Symposium on VLSI Technology here today, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (TSMC) claims it has demonstrated a new field-effect transistor (FET) type, said to be ...

At the Forschungszentrum Jülich, a new kind of transistor from germanium–tin alloy has been fabricated by scientists. The alloy comes with numerous benefits over traditional switching elements. The ...

Scientists have developed a new type of graphene-based transistor and using modelling they have demonstrated that it has ultralow power consumption compared with other similar transistor devices. The ...

A new p-type transistor with the highest carrier mobility ever measured has been touted by a team from MIT. By that standard, the device is claimed to be twice as fast as previous experimental p-type ...

Plans are being formulated for the rollout of multiple types of gate-all-around FETs and literally dozens of advanced packaging options. The question now is which ones will achieve critical mass, ...
