AF114 germanium transistors and related ones like the AF115 through AF117 were quite popular during the 1960s, but they quickly developed a reputation for failure. This is due to what should have made ...

Gallium-nitride (GaN) power devices are already causing a minor revolution in industrial power applications such as motor drives and power supplies, but are they also poised to change our expectations ...

Scientists made a single-molecule transistor using quantum interference to control electron flow. This new design offers high on/off ratio and stability, potentially leading to smaller, faster, and ...

My article about voltage-to-frequency converters had a figure that showed the waveform on the base of a unijunction transistor (Fig. 1). This was a PSpice waveform generated by OrCAD 9. After the UJT ...

What just happened? A team of researchers at MIT, in collaboration with Georgia Tech and the Air Force Research Laboratory, has developed a new method for integrating gallium nitride (GaN) transistors ...
