On a physical level, a transistor’s internal functioning is very complex, but, in practice, using it in some simple experiments is quite easy and affordable for everyone. A transistor allows to create ...

We always stress how efficient electric cars are. It is important to have that in mind, and Jason Fenske recently reminded us of that with a video about the huge impact tires can have on EVs. Texas ...

Engineers are starting to build hardware that does not just run artificial intelligence, it behaves like a primitive form of it. Instead of long chains of conventional transistors, researchers are ...
