It was late afternoon at a conference for the Institute of Radio Engineers. Many people giving talks had complained about the current germanium transistors -- they had a bad habit of not working ...

The scientists Aylesworth talked to suggested there were probably additional impurities in the tin to make that first transistor work. So instead of the tin-doped germanium, Aylesworth used a ...

This was the headline, 65 years ago, on a story in Electronics Weekly’s edition of September 7, 1960. The story opens: An all ...

A research team from Peking University has published its findings on a two-dimensional, low-power GAAFET transistor, the ...

about six years after Texas Instruments and Regency introduced the first transistor radio. Unlike traditional vacuum-tube televisions, which were bulky, fragile, and power-hungry, the TV8-301 was ...

The number of Si and Ge atoms are equal to original Si atoms. Germanium atoms are larger than silicon atoms. So when a force is created, it pushes the channel and raises the hole mobility. Increasing ...
