Transistors are the fundamental building blocks behind today's electronic revolution, powering everything from smartphones to powerful servers by controlling the flow of electrical currents.

[Tommy] has a great write-up about designing and building a minimalistic handheld electronic game called “Higher Lower”. It’s an audio-driven game in which the unit plays two tones and asks ...

Recently in material science news from China we hear that [Hailin Peng] and his team at Peking University just made the world’s fastest transistor and it’s not made of silicon. Before we tell ...

Distance may make the heart grow fonder, but it sure can make the days feel long and lonely. Whether you're looking for the perfect anniversary gift or want to send a treat "just because," we've ...

Abstract: Commercially available normally-off GaN power high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) devices have typically adopted a p-GaN gate structure. In the gate region, there exist a Schottky ...

The InP HEMT amplifier achieves a noise figure as low as 11.1 dB with an associated gain of 13.6 dB at 0.85 THz using high ${\bf f}_{\bf MAX}$ InP HEMT transistors in a 10-stage coplanar waveguide ...
