Greetings Card : Coloured SEM of a single-electron transistor
Cards from Science Photo Library
Coloured SEM of a single-electron transistor
Single-electron transistor. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a single-electron transistor. Like the larger transistors it is designed to replace, it has three parts, positive and negative terminals (lower left and right) with a " gate" (centre) situated in the few nanometres between them. Altering the current on the gate alters the state of the transistor (from " on" to " off" ). In a normal transistor, this requires thousands of electrons worth of charge, but this device can be activated by a single electron. This means more transistors can fit on a silicon chip, making it faster, more powerful and more efficient. Magnification unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a single-electron transistor, an innovative device designed to revolutionize the world of electronics. The intricate details captured in this image reveal the three essential components of the transistor: positive and negative terminals positioned at the lower left and right respectively, with a remarkable "gate" situated in between them within just a few nanometres. Unlike its larger predecessors, this single-electron transistor has the extraordinary ability to be activated by only one electron. By simply altering the current on the gate, it can transition from an "on" state to an "off" state. In conventional transistors, achieving such a change requires thousands of electrons worth of charge. However, this groundbreaking advancement allows for more transistors to be accommodated on a silicon chip. The implications are profound - increased density means faster processing speeds, enhanced power capabilities, and improved overall efficiency. This mesmerizing magnified view leaves us in awe as we contemplate how these tiny devices hold immense potential for advancing electronic technology. Captured by Science Photo Library without disclosing any commercial use or affiliation with any specific company, this photograph serves as both an artistic masterpiece and scientific marvel that highlights humanity's relentless pursuit of innovation in integrated circuits and electronics.
