A new technical paper titled “A Cryogenic Ultra-Thin Body SiGeSn Transistor” was published by researchers at TU Wien, ...

An SCR topology transmogrifies into BJT two-wire precision current source with a self-resetting fault-current limiter.

In the development of semiconductor devices, the bipolar junction transistor (BJT) features prominently as being the first solid state transistor that helped to usher in the digital revolution. For ...

Here we propose, for the first time, a solar cell characterized by a semiconductor transistor structure (n/p/n or p/n/p) where the base–emitter junction is made of a high-bandgap semiconductor and the ...

Transistors are no doubt one of humankinds greatest inventions. However, the associated greatness brings with it unprecedented complexity under the hood. To fully understand how a transistor works, ...

Abstract: The bipolar junction consists of three zones doped with N‐type impurities, P‐type impurities and then N‐type impurities to form an NPN or P‐type bipolar transistor, N‐type impurities and ...

Bell Labs and primarily William Shockley announced the invention of the junction transistor at a press conference in Murray Hill, NJ, the first week of July, 1951. Sources vary as to when the formal ...

Abstract: This paper describes a germanium n-p-n alloy junction transistor which is the counterpart to the germanium p-n-p junction transistor previously described. The importance of this new device ...
