transistors as the future of classical metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors Isabelle Ferain1‚ Cynthia A. Colinge1 & Jean-Pierre Colinge1 For more than four decades‚ transistors have been shrinking exponentially in size‚ and therefore the number of transistors in a single microelectronic chip has been increasing exponentially. Such an increase in packing density was made possible by continually shrinking the metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET). In the current

In fact almost all of the recent smart phone processors are based on an ARM core. Err I guess we are diverting to electronics again‚ coming back to the company. So the company has a unique business model‚ unlike other semiconductor companies like Intel or microchip

and an n-type semiconductor. It acts as a diode‚ which can serve in electronics as a rectifier‚ logic gate‚ voltage regulator (Zener diode)‚ switching or tuner (varactor diode); and in optoelectronics as a light-emitting diode (LED)‚ laser diode‚ photodetector‚ or solar cell. In a relatively simplified view of semiconductor materials‚ we can envision a semiconductor as having two types of charge carriers-holes and free electrons which travel in opposite directions when the semiconductor is subject to
