From the lab: A new device for more efficient phones, computers

At the heart of all modern gadgets, like mobile phones and computer chips, are tiny transistors that carry electrical signals at close to the speed of light. Their design and the way they are placed decide how efficiently a gadget can perform its operations.
My group at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, has invented and demonstrated a transistor design which can lead to a breakthrough in future chip technology. The proposed transistor has significantly better performance and scalabilit
