To form a transistor, the researchers were just missing source and drain electrodes. Those were made completely separately by forming all of the wiring on top of a solid surface.

It could, for example, be used for new memory cells or more energy-efficient transistors. This new type of transistor is called ferro-TFET and can be used in both digital and analogue circuits.

Example of a circuit with an NPN transistor: Operation: When darkness falls on the light dependant resistor (LDR) ... , a current flows through the 2.2kΩ resistor into the base of the transistor.

Examples of applications employing IGZO-TFT-based circuits. Thin-film transistors (TFTs) made of indium-gallium-zinc-oxide (IGZO) as the semiconducting material are typically used in backplane ...

Like the DEC PDP-8, this is a 12-bit machine, but instead of the diode-transistor logic of the DEC, the substantially smaller Q2 uses a simple NMOS approach.

Electronics Industry transistor Reconfigurable transistors can be programmed to execute different functions A new generation of intelligent, controllable transistors that could replace (or assist ...

Capacitance, or the storage of electrical charge, normally has a positive value. However, using the ferroelectric material in a transistor’s gate allows for negative capacitance, which could result in ...

Energy saving: artist’s impression of the gate material with negative capacitance. (Courtesy: Ella Maru Studio) By exploiting a curious effect called negative capacitance, researchers have designed a ...
