Scientists believe they are close to building the first truly biological computer made from the organic molecules of life and capable of working within the living cells of organisms ranging from ...

German physicists have succeeded in getting nanowires in a tiny transistor which assemble by themselves by combining genetic material with chunks of modified DNA - an important step towards organic ...

An organic transistor has opened the way to new generations of neuro-inspired computers, capable of responding in a manner similar to the nervous system. The study of the transistor, based on ...

A bioelectronic engineer, Klas Tybrandt of Linkoping University in Sweden, has built the first "ion transistor" computer chip, which uses chemical ions and biological molecules as charge carriers ...

It is said to have a “general compiler ” programming technique which enables words and svmbols to be automatically translated into machine language. The machine is claimed to have a cost per ...

For decades, the computer chip industry has steadily improved devices’ performance by cramming ever more, ever tinier silicon transistors — the components that make up circuits — onto each chip. But ...

IBM on Thursday announced it has built a working version of miniscule 7-nanometer computer chips. Above, a close up of IBM's 7nm node test chip. Darryl Bautista/Feature Photo Service for IBM IBM said ...

Have you ever stopped to wonder, 'how do computers work?' Think about it for a moment. Computers are just another electrical device, like a light bulb, made of inert bits of metal and silicon. Yet, ...

To take chip designs to the next level, IBM and Samsung are researching how to build semiconductor transistors vertically to free up more space on the silicon. The research has led the companies to ...
