Electrical Engineering Research Team Develops New Transistor

By Jenn Ambrose
The American Chemical Society (ACS) launched its new journal Applied Electronic Materials this year. One of Boise State’s own research teams landed a spot in the very first issue thanks to their novel work on a new type of transistor. “The new transistor opens up an exciting avenue of research,” says Dr. Kris Campbell, an associate professor in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department. The featured work describes an optically-gated transistor developed in the Non-Volatile Memory research lab at Boise State University. Campbell’s research team includes undergraduate electrical engineering students Randall Bassine and Jeremy Astle and electrical and computer engineering doctoral student Faisal Kabir. Their unique work has led to a patent for Boise State University and has already been licensed by a company hoping to use the technology in their products. In this work, Dr. Campbell and her team demonstrate that a device comprised of alternating layers of sputtered amorphous c...
