Advanced Micro Devices has developed two sets of next-generation transistors using different approaches that produce higher levels of performance than conventional transistors, the company said at the ...

Why it matters: Moore's Law has been on life support for a while now, but it's not dead yet. Chipmakers are burning the midnight oil to miniaturize transistor designs, and a team of researchers in ...

There's been no greater act of magic in technology than the sleight of hand performed by Moore's Law. Electronic components that once fit in your palm have long gone atomic, vanishing from our world ...

The chipmaker says that the futuristic transistor, designed to let electricity flow more freely inside chips, is moving closer to reality. Michael Kanellos is editor at large at CNET News.com, where ...

After nearly a decade and five major nodes, along with a slew of half-nodes, the semiconductor manufacturing industry will begin transitioning from finFETs to gate-all-around stacked nanosheet ...

As transistor sizes shrink, short channel effects make it more difficult for transistor gates to turn a transistor ON and OFF [1]. One method to overcome this problem is to move away from planar ...

This figure depicts the synthesis of metallic 1D mirror twin boundaries through Van der Waals epitaxial growth (top) and the large-area 2D semiconductor integrated circuit constructed based on these ...

A transistor – a word blend of "transfer" and "resistor" – is a fundamental component of today's advanced electronics. Essentially, a transistor, as one of the foundational elements of modern ...

Transistors, the building blocks of microprocessors, may have only one place to go in the future according to Intel researchers: up. At a presentation in Japan this week, the Santa Clara, Calif.-based ...

The chipmaker plans to unveil more details behind its Tri-Gate transistor, an experimental circuit that could be important in the company's quest to keep up with Moore's Law. Michael Kanellos is ...
