By using a carefully tuned laser pulse, the researchers are able to use fullerene to switch the path of an incoming electron in a predictable way. This switching process can be three to six orders of ...

The transistor laser invented by scientists at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign has now been found to possess fundamental non-linear characteristics that are new to a transistor and ...

A transistor is a key component in electronics, often used as a switch or to amplify a signal from a sensor. NPN (negative-positive-negative) transistors are the most used transistor. An ...

FIFTY years ago today in Murray Hill, N. J., a Bell Labs engineer named Walter Brattain connected two strips of gold foil to a thin piece of germanium and noted with satisfaction that this combinat… ...
