A research team led by faculty scientist Ali Javey at the US Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) has created a transistor with a gate length (the defining dimension of a transistor) just 1nm long, ...
Moore's new law is that big data will lead to big science. The Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation plans to give US$1.5 million grants (in $200 000 to $300 000 yearly installments) to 15 worthy interdisciplinary scientists who can develop and ...
