Bell Labs — whose researchers pioneered everything from transistors to lasers — is moving out of its headquarters in Murray Hill.

That roll of aluminum foil in your kitchen drawer might not be as innocent as you think. While it’s been a cooking companion for decades, scientists are discovering some uncomfortable truths ...

But not everyone, depending on the type of shaver they’re using. That’s because the two types of electric shavers—foil and rotary—offer mostly the same benefits, but are technically better ...

The transition from finFET technology to Gate-All-Around (GAA) technology helps to reduce transistor variability and resume channel length scaling. It also brings several new challenges in terms of ...

From this world comes [colectornet], with a video that crosses the bridge between our two communities, examining the so-called transistor wars of the late 1950s and through the ’60s. Just as ...

Aluminum foil can be a brilliant tool in the kitchen. It keeps pans nice and tidy; it holds in steam while potatoes bake; it protects delicate pastry from burning. But can aluminum foil over a ...

Ferroelectric materials can provide non-volatile memory, serving an important functional gap somewhere between DRAM and flash memory. Indeed, ferroelectrics for memory and 2D channels for transistors ...

The bright-field nature of the illumination used in this design allows images to be captured with sub-millisecond exposure times. The camera is synchronized with the LED array via a ...

If you look at the data sheet for a typical transistor, you will find a section devoted to switching characteristics. Taking as an example the 2N3094 popular general purpose transistor ...
