Science: English schoolboy has revolutionized the world of transistors – CPV.ru

 
 

Opening the 18-year-old student from the English county of Surrey, Thomas Burridge can lead to a real revolution in the development of flexible electronic devices.

His open English student did last summer when, under the leadership of Dr. Radu Sporea within the charitable program SATRO held practice at the University of Surrey.

school children managed to solve the difficult task of improving the reliability of the field of MIS transistors. Until now, application area field of MOS transistors (in particular, they are used in systems adjust luminance and chrominance screens of electronic devices) that are easier and more economical than conventional transistors, was severely limited due to the substantial lack – this type of transistor is easily overheated, making unreliable applications for chips.

However, the 18-year-old British student managed to solve this problem, when by computer simulation of behavior of MOS transistors field in different modes revealed that the self-heating problem disappear by simply changing their geometry.

This is an easy solution to a complex problem can lead to in the near future, fundamentally new types of displays, sensors, and even clothing. The fact is that the possibilities of the field of MOS transistors are virtually limitless, as they are very cheap and are printed like paper.

Dr Radu Sporea pleased with the success of his ward: “When you put in front of a student task, you never say him that this issue no one has previously studied. They do not realize that addressing the problems at the forefront of science, and thus achieve excellent results ».

The very same young inventor glad that it all turned out and is preparing to study at the Faculty of Engineering, University of Cambridge, where it goes on this year.
