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

Northrop Grumman researchers have produced and demonstrated a transistor that has a maximum frequency of operation of more than 1,000 GHz. The device is an indium phosphide-based High Electronic ...

A 28-V, 5-W class high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) from Nitronex now operates at frequencies that fall between 5.1 GHz to 5.2 GHz and 5.7 GHz to 5.8 GHz. The NPTB00004 gallium nitride on ...

Researchers from IBM (East Fishkill, NY) and Georgia Institute of Technology (Atlanta, GA) recently announced an SiGe transistor operating above 500 GHz claimed 250 times faster than the average ...

Way back in the salad days of digital computing (the 1940s and '50s), computers were made of vacuum tubes -- big, hot, clunky devices that, when you got right down to it, were essentially glorified ...
