As transistors are scaled to smaller dimensions, their static power increases. Combining two-dimensional (2D) channel materials with complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) logic architectures ...

Research is underway to develop a new type of logic device, called non-volatile logic (NVL), based on ferroelectric FETs. FeFETs have been a topic of high interest at recent industry conferences, but ...

CDimension’s technology, which enables semiconductor makers to manufacture arrays of extremely small, fast, and efficient “2D” transistors, has the potential to change what’s possible for both digital ...

Washington – Texas Instruments Inc., together with researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne and the U.S Air Force Research Laboratory, have described a potential way to use ...

With the advent of quantum computing, the need for peripheral fault-tolerant logic control circuitry has reached new heights. In classical computation, the unit of information is a “1” or “0”. In ...

Nanoscale molybdenum disulfide memristors integrated onto standard CMOS chips achieve the lowest switching voltage reported for any 2D-material memristor on chip. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Every time a ...

Forward-looking: The billions of transistors hidden within a single CPU are manufactured to execute just one specific function. A team of Viennese scientists, however, aims to introduce ...

As we have observed in previous parts of this course, in a digital system, signals can take on only two values: high or low. These values are often represented by two voltage levels. The most used ...

Finnish company Semiqon has developed a transistor that operates with virtually zero heat dissipation. They have made silicon-based quantum processors to make future quantum computers more affordable, ...

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 you ...

Packaged ICs comprising a single die in standard CMOS silicon technology will soon become less standard if the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and its commercial partners have their ...
