For almost two decades, scientists have been trying to move beyond silicon, the material ...

Lab-on-a-chip is a class of devices that can revolutionize the natural working of a laboratory, with multiple laboratory techniques being integrated and automated in a system that fits into a chip of ...

The technology industry is obsessed with the future. Many of our modern marvels are rooted in the legacy of Bell Labs, an ...

The future began 75 years ago this week with the invention of a device that’s seen as the most manufactured item in human history. The transistor was born in New Jersey on Dec. 16, 1947. This week, we ...

Cornell researchers have used high-resolution 3D imaging to detect, for the first time, the atomic-scale defects in computer chips that can sabotage their performance. The imaging method, which was ...

NEW YORK (AP) - Lucent Technologies Inc.'s Bell Labs, the storied research lab that invented the transistor in 1947, announced the development of a tiny new transistor made of a simple cluster of ...

75 years ago this month, research scientists working at Bell Labs first created, then unveiled to the world a new device—the point contact transistor. Some call it the greatest invention of the 20th ...
