| 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. http://www.techeye.net/chips/new-tra...wer-challenges |
