The team has also developed an innovative hot-emitter transistor (HOET), achieving an ultralow sub-threshold swing of less ...

The diagram illustrates the basic design of an NPN junction transistor. Two slices of N-type semiconductor, the emitter and the collector, form a sandwich with a layer of P-type semiconductor ...

A slight surprise comes in how point contact transistors are used, unlike today’s devices their gain in common emitter mode was so poor that they took instead a common base configuration.

These are analogous to the terminals on a bipolar transistor, in that the source fulfills a similar role to the emitter, the gate to the base, and the drain to the collector. Thus the three basic ...

The transistor base (the "meat" of the sandwich ... The two slabs of "bread" (one is called the emitter and one is called the collector) have excess electrons. These electrons can scoot around ...

Once an input of 0.6 volts has triggered the base leg, a much larger current can flow through the collector or emitter leg. Transistors are easily damaged so it is important not to mix up the ...
