  • These transistor gates are just one carbon atom thick
    3/15/22
    IEEE Spectrum quoted Huamin Li, assistant professor of electrical engineering, in a story about a transistor with a record-breaking gate length of just roughly one-third of a nanometer wide, only as thick as a single layer of carbon atoms, shedding light on how much smaller transistors can possibly get.
  • Atoms-thick transistors get faster using less power
    12/23/20
    IEEE Spectrum interviews Huamin Li, assistant professor of electrical engineering, about new transistor technology. The article reports that by combining graphene and molybdenum disulfide, researchers have made a transistor that operates at half the voltage and has a higher current density than any state-of-the-art 2D transistor previously under development.
  • Researchers create atom-thin transistor
    12/15/20
    Electro Pages reports on a study of a new, two-dimensional transistor developed by UB researchers that’s made of graphene and molybdenum disulfide and could help usher in a new era of computing.
  • Atom-thin transistor uses half the voltage of common semiconductors, boosts current density
    12/14/20
    SemiConductor Digest, Science Daily and other news outlets report on a study of a new, two-dimensional transistor made of graphene and molybdenum disulfide that could help usher in a new era of computing.
  • Atom-thin transistor uses half the voltage of common semiconductors, boosts current density
    12/9/20
    Phys.org published a report on research co-led by electrical engineer Huamin Lion and materials scientist Fei Yao on a new, two-dimensional transistor made of graphene and the compound molybdenum disulfide that requires half the voltage of current semiconductors and has a current density greater than similar transistors under development.
  • Li receives NSF CAREER Award
    1/7/20

    Huamin Li is the tenth faculty member in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences to receive a CAREER Award in 2019. Li, an assistant professor of electrical engineering, will investigate a novel transistor concept offering faster switching speeds and less energy consumption.
