What is a Single-Electron Transistor? A single-electron transistor (SET) is a nanoscale electronic device that allows the precise control of individual electrons. Unlike conventional transistors that ...

Scientists made a single-molecule transistor using quantum interference to control electron flow. This new design offers high on/off ratio and stability, potentially leading to smaller, faster, and ...

Coulomb blockade is a phenomenon in which the flow of electrons through a nanostructure, such as a quantum dot or a single-electron transistor, is restricted due to the electrostatic repulsion between ...

What Is A Single Electron Transistor? A single electron transistor (SET) is a transistor that operates on the principles of quantum mechanics and utilises the behaviour of single electrons. It differs ...

High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMTs) underpin many advanced electronic applications due to their superior performance in high-frequency and high-power regimes. The ongoing miniaturisation and ...

A research team has implemented a novel method to achieve epitaxial growth of 1D metallic materials with a width of less than 1 nm. The group applied this process to develop a new structure for 2D ...

Recently, Wei Deng and colleagues from Soochow University, China, proposed a transparent electrical contact concept for improving the performance of organic transistors. This work was recently ...

The ability to make a very miniature on/off switch changed the world. These tiny switches, known as transistors, make up the basis of all modern computing—they drive your cell phones, your bank ...

An international team of researchers from Queen Mary University of London, the University of Oxford, Lancaster University, and the University of Waterloo have developed a new single-molecule ...
