(Nanowerk Spotlight) On December 26, 1947, the two physicists Walter Brattain and John Bardeen, officially demonstrated the first point-contact transistor at Bell Labs. Later, in January 1948, William ...
The integrated circuit (IC) has a rich history that started over 64 years ago with the creation of the first transistor. Although crude by today’s standards, the first point-contact transistor was ...
A transistor fabricated from the crystalline phase of an organic semiconductor material could provide a path to improved switching speeds — rivalling those of devices built from inorganic materials ...
