11History of the transistor — Invention of the transistor= The first patent [patent|US|1745175|Julius Edgar Lilienfeld: Method and apparatus for controlling electric current first filed in Canada on 22.10.1925, describing a device similar to a MESFET] for the field effect… …
12High Electron Mobility Transistor — HEMT stands for High Electron Mobility Transistor, and is also called heterostructure FET (HFET) or modulation doped FET (MODFET). A HEMT is a field effect transistor incorporating a junction between two materials with different band gaps (i.e. a …
13Monte Carlo methods for electron transport — The Monte Carlo method for electron transport is a semiclassical Monte Carlo(MC) approach of modeling semiconductor transport. Assuming the carrier motion consists of free flights interrupted by scattering mechanisms, a computer is utilized to… …
14Floating-gate transistor — The floating gate transistor is a kind of transistor that is commonly used for non volatile storage such as flash, EPROM and EEPROM memory. Floating gate transistors are almost always floating gate MOSFETs.Floating gate MOSFETs are useful because …
15Spin transistor — The magnetically sensitive transistor (also known as the spin transistor or spintronic transistor named for spintronics, the technology which this development spawned), originally proposed in 1990 and currently still being developed, is an… …

17Single molecule electronics — is a branch of molecular electronics that uses single molecules as electronic components. Because single molecules constitute the smallest stable structures imaginable this miniaturization is the ultimate goal for shrinking electrical circuits.… …
18Coulomb blockade — Schematic representation of an electron tunnelling through a barrier In physics, a Coulomb blockade (abbreviated CB), named after Charles Augustin de Coulomb s electrical force, is the increased resistance at small bias voltages of an electronic… …
19Moore's law — Plot of CPU transistor counts against dates of introduction. Note the logarithmic vertical scale; the line corresponds to exponential growth with transistor count doubling every two years …
20Mathematics and Physical Sciences — ▪ 2003 Introduction Mathematics Mathematics in 2002 was marked by two discoveries in number theory. The first may have practical implications; the second satisfied a 150 year old curiosity. Computer scientist Manindra Agrawal of the… …
