In theory, the hundreds of photons, controlled by the triggering photon, could fan out and switch off hundreds of other transistors in an optical circuit.

Basic Load Switch A load switch is comprised of two main elements – the pass transistor and the on/off control segment. The pass transistor is most commonly a P-channel or N-channel MOSFET that passes ...

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 acts as a switch, converting electrical inputs into output signals via logic gates. Now, Drew Endy (pictured) at Stanford University in California and colleagues have designed a ...

The transistor could be a promising step towards advanced optical computers, which have the potential to outperform their electronic counterparts. The transistors at the heart of modern technology ...

The circuit in the figure shows a low-cost solution based on a transistor switch (Q1). The transistor is off under normal conditions, when the differential amplifier built around U1 amplifies the ...

Researchers have reported a black phosphorus transistor that can be used as an alternative ultra-low power switch. A research team developed a thickness-controlled black phosphorous tunnel field ...
