Sunday marks the 60th anniversary of the assembly of the very first transistor, invented at Bell Labs in 1947. That legendary company, along with semiconductor manufacturers such as Texas Instruments, ...

The very first transistor -- the foundational block which almost all of modern civilization was built from -- was created at AT&T's Bell Labs on December 23 1947. This first transistor was huge and ...

Researchers at Linköping University and the KTH Royal Institute of Technology have developed the world’s first transistor made of wood. Their study, published in the journal PNAS, paves the way for ...

The future began 75 years ago this week with the invention of something small that’s considered the most manufactured item in human history. Odds are, you are surrounded by them right now. The ...

In this lesson, students build two circuits and explore how transistors function. When Bell Labs introduced the transistor in June of 1948, a spokesman proudly announced "This cylindrical object . . .

When you think of Sony, you probably think of a technology company that’s been around forever. However, as [Asianometry] points out, it really formed in the tough years after World War II. The two ...

Researchers have developed the first transistor made of wood. Their study paves the way for further development of wood-based electronics and control of electronic plants. Researchers at Linköping ...

The world's smallest transistor, made from a mere six atoms of carbon suspended between two gold electrodes, has been created by scientists from Yale University and South Korea. Although transistors, ...
