Solid-state transistors, in turn, enabled technologies like the transistor radio, which took over a field once dominated by technologies like the cat's-whisker detector. Indeed, by the 1950s, ...

Duke engineers show how a common device architecture used to test 2D transistors overstates their performance prospects in real-world devices.

Breakthrough said to overcome long-standing limitations of traditional ferroelectric transistors, 'paving way for large-scale application'.

For decades, chipmakers have squeezed more computing power out of silicon by shrinking transistors, but that strategy is running into hard physical limits. A new approach from MIT aims to sidestep ...

Lab architecture used to test 2D semiconductors artificially boosts performance metrics, making it harder to assess whether these materials can truly replace silicon.
