Bipolar transistors, essential components in a myriad of electronic devices, are highly susceptible to the adverse impacts of radiation. Ionising radiation introduces defects within the semiconductor ...

Researchers have developed a highly efficient organic bipolar transistor. The work opens up new perspectives for organic electronics -- both in data processing and transmission, as well as in medical ...

A transistor fabricated from the crystalline phase of an organic semiconductor material could provide a path to improved switching speeds — rivalling those of devices built from inorganic materials ...

In the early days, PNP bipolar transistors were common, but the bulk of circuits you see today use NPN transistors. As [Aaron Danner] points out, many people think PNP transistors are “backward” but ...

Power consumption in electronic gadgets is a critical factor that involves low power circuit designs which remains a challenging and complex task for the semiconductor industry, in particular, for ...
