Default New transistor overcomes power challenges

Engineers at the University of California Santa Barbara have shown off a new transistor that switches at 0.1 volts and reduces power dissipation by over 90 percent, compared to the latest silicon transistors (MOSFETs).

Continuing miniaturisation of MOSFETs poses a power dissipation challenge because of their fundamental turn on characteristics.

The engineers at UC Santa Barbara have used the quantum mechanical phenomenon of “band to band” tunneling to make a tunnel field effect transistor.
