Designers of electronics and communications systems are constantly faced with the challenge of integrating greater functionality on less silicon area. Many of the system blocks – such as power ...

Diamond CMOS needs symmetrical doping control like we have for semiconductor silicon and diamond n-MOS is needed. The n-channel diamond MOSFETs are demonstrated. This work will enable the development ...

These devices will play a crucial role in addressing the critical challenge of scaling current quantum computers to fault-tolerant levels and will help to unlock the full potential of quantum going ...

If you leave signals applied to the inputs of a CMOS chip with the power turned off, the chip might explode when you re-apply power. This is called latchup. Similarly, if you drag the outputs of a ...

Valleytronics, based on the valley degree of freedom rather than charge, is a promising candidate for next-generation information devices beyond complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) ...

The transistor, an invention that heralded a new era in electronics, is the key component of practically all integrated circuits (ICs) and microprocessors. The point-contact transistor that Walter H.

(Nanowerk News) Harish Krishnaswamy, assistant professor of electrical engineering at Columbia Engineering, has generated a record amount of power output—by a power of five—using silicon-based ...

IBM has revealed more details of its 52MHz nanotube-based CMOS ring oscillator, and claims versions running at terahertz frequencies are feasible. All of the p and n-Mosfets in the five-stage ...
