Field-effect transistors (FETs) are the cornerstone of modern electronic devices, providing the essential functionality for digital logic, analog processing and power management. The fundamental ...

This course presents in-depth discussion and analysis of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) including the equilibrium characteristics, ...

Normally, semiconductors don't have many free electrons. Since electric current relies on those free electrons, the amount of current that can travel through an isolated semiconductor is negligible.

Over the recent weeks here at Hackaday, we’ve been taking a look at the humble transistor. In a series whose impetus came from a friend musing upon his students arriving with highly developed ...

A research team has developed an n-channel diamond MOSFET (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor). The developed n-channel diamond MOSFET provides a key step toward CMOS (complementary ...

In the beginning, there was the point-contact transistor. This was the very first transistor ever made, built by Walter Brattain with the help of John Bardeen. It was made of two gold foil contacts ...

On this day in tech history, JE Lilienfeld filed a patent for a three-electrode structure using copper-sulfide semiconductor material, known today as a field-effect transistor. Lilienfeld’s patent for ...

This research was published in Advanced Science ("High-temperature and high-electron mobility metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors based on n-type diamond"). World’s First N-Channel ...
