What Makes a Transistor So Powerful?

Transistors are tiny components that act as switches and amplifiers in nearly every electronic device. This video breaks down ...
Researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have demonstrated the laser operation of a heterojunction bipolar light-emitting transistor. The scientists describe the fabrication and ...
What Is A Single Electron Transistor? A single electron transistor (SET) is a transistor that operates on the principles of quantum mechanics and utilises the behaviour of single electrons. It differs ...
First developed in the mid 1980s, organic transistors immediately raised the prospect of using cheap, flexible and lightweight plastic for "smart cards" and other throw-away memory devices, or as the ...
Designers of switch-mode power supplies generally put a lot of care into selecting the placement of poles/zeros of the supply transfer function to ensure stable operation. However, many such designs ...
On a physical level, a transistor’s internal functioning is very complex, but, in practice, using it in some simple experiments is quite easy and affordable for everyone. A transistor allows to create ...
