Description

A transistor is a semiconductor device used to amplify and switch electronic signals. It is made of a solid piece of semiconductor material, with at least three terminals for connection to an external circuit. A voltage or current applied to one pair of the transistor's terminals changes the current flowing through another pair of terminals. Because the controlled (output) power can be much more than the controlling (input) power, the transistor provides amplification of a signal.More information on Transistor can be found here.

  1. Thermal Transport in Layered Materials, Devices, and Systems

    11 Apr 2024 | | Contributor(s):: Eric Pop

    The thermal properties of layered materials (like graphene and MoS2) are an active area of investigation, particularly due to their anisotropic and tunable thermal conductivity. We have studied their behavior as part of transistors, where self-heating is a major challenge for performance and...

  2. What Are 2D Materials Good For?

    11 Apr 2024 | | Contributor(s):: Eric Pop

    This talk will present my (admittedly biased) perspective of what two-dimensional (2D) materials could be good for. For example, they may be good for applications where their ultrathin nature and lack of dangling bonds give them distinct advantages, such as flexible electronics or DNA-sorting...

  3. Essential Physics of the Ultimate MOSFET and the Next 20 Years of Semiconductor Technology

    18 Mar 2024 | | Contributor(s):: Mark Lundstrom

    My goal in this talk is to discuss the operation of these devices in a simple but physically sound way. A broader goal of my talk is to discuss how semiconductor technology will meet the insatiable appetite that artificial intelligence has for more computing, more memory, and faster communication.
