A lot of researchers are out there working to put an end to the "silicon" in Silicon Valley. That is, they're looking for an electronics material that both conducts electricity better and allows for ...

Reducing the parasitic capacitance between the gate metal and the source/drain contact of a transistor can decrease device switching delays. One way to reduce parasitic capacitance is to reduce the ...

Anyone working at advanced IC geometries is familiar with the bad news: transistor leakage currents are going up, and intermetal parasitic capacitance is going up. Put the two together, and you have a ...

Researchers have unveiled an innovative approach to create flexible organic integrated circuits (ICs) devoid of parasitic capacitance. This advancement heralds a substantial enhancement in the dynamic ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Researchers have experimentally demonstrated how to harness a property called negative capacitance for a new type of transistor that could reduce power consumption, validating a ...

As the need to scale transistors to ever-smaller sizes continues to press on technology designers, the impact of parasitic resistance and capacitance can approach or even outpace other aspects of ...

(Nanowerk News) As our electronics continue to proliferate and become more sophisticated, the race continues for more power efficient and scaleable semiconductor devices — components that use minimal ...

Integrated circuit (IC) designers move to advanced process technology nodes to leverage higher performance, density, and functionality, as well as reduced delay and power consumption, enabled by ...

While the Miller effect might sound like fun, it is actually the effect of parasitic capacitance in amplifiers. What do you do about it? Watch the video below the break from [All Electronics] and find ...

The basic design requirements for power semiconductors are efficiency, reliability, controllability, and cost-effectiveness. High-frequency capability adds further value in system size and transient ...
