Researchers have built working transistors from graphene nanoribbons less than a nanometer wide, achieving room-temperature switching performance that silicon struggles to match at similar scales. The ...
For decades, silicon transistors have driven computational power, and scientists have devoted much of their time to making ...
Every smartphone, laptop and AI server on the planet runs on a chip. Most Americans have heard chips are getting smaller. Almost nobody knows what happens when they literally cannot get any smaller ...
Semiconductor transistors now switch states in single-digit picoseconds, enabling processors to flip billions of logic gates every second without a single mechanical component. Research on 0.07-micron ...
Computer engineering, but in particular mobile computer engineering, is all about playing a zero-sum game with yourself. Power and efficiency are constantly undercutting one another, creating ...
Hardly a day goes by without a top-level research group announcing some kind of graphene-related breakthrough, but this one's a biggy: Researchers at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany have ...
In a nutshell: Back in 2021, a team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology made waves by creating an entirely new type of ferroelectric material. Now, those same researchers have one-upped ...
At its core, a lot of modern technology depends on relatively simple patterns to receive and relay information. Incidentally, living things have also functioned this way for billions of years—a ...
