These companies use a variety of materials and processes to manufacture transistors, including silicon, germanium, and other semiconductor materials. They may also produce different types of ...

William Shockley improved on this design with his junction transistor, a three-layer sandwich of different types of semiconductor. The diagram illustrates the basic design of an NPN junction ...

While one lab at Bell was trying to improve those first type-A transistors, William Shockley was working on a whole different design that would eventually get rid of these problems. Early in 1948 ...

A technical paper titled “Roadmap for Schottky barrier transistors” was published by researchers at University of Surrey, ...

CMOS technology combines two types of transistors that work together, leading to efficient power use and high noise immunity. CMOS technology uses two different types of transistors, n-type (nMOS) and ...

In this module on MOSFETs (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors), we cover the following topics: History of the development of MOSFETs, Device structure, Device types, Circuit symbols, ...

In a series of blog posts, [Andrew Gibiansky] is tearing down the walls of obfuscation and illuminating the world of transistors, gates, and FPGAs. The first blog post goes over the idea of ...
