Many of the technologies we rely on, from smartphones to wearable devices and more, utilize fast wireless communications. What might we accomplish if those devices transmitted information even faster?

Integrated circuits (ICs) serve as the basis of computers, tablets, smartphones, and other technology that enhances our daily life. For around 60 years, those circuits have been made from silicon with ...

Atomic-scale imperfections in graphene transistors generate unique wireless fingerprints that cannot be copied or predicted, ...

Nothing is worse for a design team than a chip that fails to work in the bringup lab. Electrical problems are historically a major cause of such failures. Power leaks, power-ground DC paths, missing ...

James M. Early, 81, an electrical engineer and inventor best known for his pioneering work with transistors, died Jan. 12 at a veterans hospital in Palo Alto. The cause of death was not reported.

Researchers are learning to flip light on and off one particle at a time, turning single photons into a controllable resource ...

An engineer has designed a novel computing system made solely from carbon that might one day replace the silicon transistors that power today's electronic devices. An engineer with the Erik Jonsson ...

Traditional CMOS chips are fabricated by applying and then etching repeated layers of different materials, applied to a wafer of ultra-pure silicon. The bottom-most layer, also known as the front end ...
