A stunning new imaging breakthrough lets scientists see — and fix — the atomic flaws hiding inside tomorrow’s computer chips.

An alloy material called InGaAs could be suitable for high-performance computer transistors, according to researchers. If operated at high-frequencies, InGaAs transistors could one day rival those ...

Cornell researchers have used advanced electron microscopy to identify "mouse bite" defects in 3D transistors for the first time ...

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

Intel Corp. said Wednesday that it has redesigned the electronic switches on its chips so that computers can keep getting cheaper and more powerful. The switches, known as transistors, have typically ...

Engineers propose a built-in security measure that would better protect computer chip hardware from hackers. A hacker can reproduce a circuit on a chip by discovering what key transistors are doing in ...

For almost two decades, scientists have been trying to move beyond silicon, the material ...

A team of scientists at the University of California, Berkeley have created a metallic wire made entirely of carbon, setting the stage for research into carbon-based transistors and computers.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — A hacker can reproduce a circuit on a chip by discovering what key transistors are doing in a circuit – but not if the transistor “type” is undetectable. Purdue University ...
