Silicon transistors are held back by a physical limit (the 'Boltzmann tyranny') that prevents transistors from operating below a certain voltage. But now, in an effort to overcome this limit, MIT ...

Few areas of research have captivated scientists more than the search for room-temperature superconductivity. Finding a way ...

Recent enhancements to the classic Bipolar junction transistors show that the classic transistor has plenty of life left and ...

Edge computing devices, devices located in proximity to the source of data instead of in large data centers, could perform computations locally. This could reduce latency, particularly in real-time ...

Researchers are leveraging quantum mechanical properties to overcome the limits of silicon semiconductor technology.

Nanoscale 3D transistors made from ultrathin semiconductor materials can operate more efficiently than silicon-based devices, leveraging quantum mechanical properties to potentially enable ultra ...

With its new chip, AMD hopes to narrow the performance gap with Nvidia in the AI processor ... the announced MI325X accelerator contains 153 billion transistors and is built on the CDNA3 GPU ...

Harris and Trump are trying to address the gender gap. Their approaches could not be more different. By Jess Bidgood If you have been reading this newsletter with any regularity (and I’m ...

the band gap is expressed in electron volts, abbreviated eV. Most electronic devices rely on semiconductors, assembled into transistors and integrated circuits. Because of their ability to ...
