By introducing impurities, a process known as doping, transistors based on silicon can be made electron-deficient (p-type) or electron-rich (n-type), enabling the creation of complementary logic ...

Saptarshi Das, Ackley Professor of Engineering Science and Mechanics have developed high performance p-type field effect transistors (FETs) based on 2D materials. These transistors, introduced in ...

Bardeen, Brattain and Shockley had tested various combinations of p-type and n-type semiconductors under different conditions until they finally found a configuration that would allow a thin layer of ...

The outer layers had to be a semiconductor with either too many electrons (known as N-type) or too few (known as P-type), while the inner layer was the opposite. Under Shockley's prodding ...

The simplest FET for demonstration purposes has a piece of N-type semiconductor with source and drain connections at opposite ends, and a zone of P-type semiconductor deposited in its middle.

Two slices of N-type semiconductor, the emitter and the collector, form a sandwich with a layer of P-type semiconductor, called the base. P- and N-type semiconductors are made with different ...

Mostly-Analog editor Andy Turudic takes a look at the original 1963 ISSCC paper that described the world’s first CMOS process ...

These devices have historically relied on thin transistors, which are small semiconductors ... on gold metal are both p-type, while the same contacts with chalcogen vacancy defects ...

CMOS technology uses two different types of transistors, n-type (nMOS) and p-type (pMOS), which work together in pairs in a complementary manner. The term "complementary" refers to how these two ...

The use of n-type and p-type silicon is a foundation concept in the design of transistors. Pure silicon is not conductive. However, it can be made conductive by adding other elements to its ...
