At Peking University, a group of Chinese scientists may have just turned the computing industry up on its head. With a slender sheet of lab-grown bismuth and an architecture unlike anything inside ...

Shrinking silicon transistors have reached their physical limits, but a team from the University of Tokyo is rewriting the rules. They've created a cutting-edge transistor using gallium-doped indium ...

Shrinking computers, faster phones, and smarter gadgets all rely on one tiny component: the transistor. Invented in the 20th century, it’s what powers nearly every modern electronic device.

If the claim is accurate, it would mean that China has bleeding-edge tech that could rival chips from Intel and TSMC. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X (opens in a new window) Share ...

In the era of big data and artificial intelligence, a new approach has emerged for solving combinatorial optimization ...

Associate Professor Mario Lanza and his team demonstrated a groundbreaking silicon transistor that mimics neural and synaptic behaviours, marking a significant breakthrough in neuromorphic computing.

For nearly two decades, two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors have been studied as a complement or possible successor to silicon transistors, promising smaller, faster and more energy-efficient ...
