(Nanowerk Spotlight) Silicon transistors have been made smaller year after year, but they are approaching a point of physical limitation. Their increasingly small dimensions, now reaching well into ...

Researchers at the University of Michigan have unveiled a solid-state cooling system for future semiconductors based on a surprisingly simple concept: running a light-emitting diode (LED) in reverse.

Today’s analog foundries can integrate sensors with highly optimized analog and digital functions on a single chip. It’s possible to sense physical phenomena such as pressure, temperature, magnetic ...
