A Nano-sheet Transistor Allows Continuous Control of Superconducting States
[press release: Nov. 30, 2012]
[press release: Nov. 30, 2012]
- Ever since its development in the early 1950s, a transistor, the fundamental building block of modern electronic, has never stopped its evolution of being faster and smaller, a process that recently imminently demised by physical boundaries that limit the miniaturization. Researchers at QPEC, University of Tokyo and RIKEN developed a new type of transistor on nano-sheets isolated from an abundant layered natural mineral. This nano device is offering a continuous control of a quantum state of matter, superconductivity, paving ways for future electronic with new operation concepts.

A New Route to Dissipationless Electronics
Realization of a new type of magnetic phase in devices opens the door to electronics based on topologically non-trivial materials
[press release: August 20, 2012]
Realization of a new type of magnetic phase in devices opens the door to electronics based on topologically non-trivial materials
[press release: August 20, 2012]
- A team of researchers at RIKEN and the University of Tokyo has demonstrated a new material that promises to eliminate loss in electrical power transmission.
The surprise is that their methodology for solving this classic energy problem is based upon the first realization of a highly exotic type of magnetic semiconductor first theorized
less than a decade ago - a magnetic topological insulator.

Switching the state of matter
New transistor harnessing strong electron correlations enables electrical switching of the state of matter
[press release: July 26, 2012]
New transistor harnessing strong electron correlations enables electrical switching of the state of matter
[press release: July 26, 2012]
- Sixty years after the transistor began a technological revolution that transformed nearly every aspect of our daily lives, a new transistor brings innovations
that may help to do so again. Developed at RIKEN, the device uses the electrostatic accumulation of electrical charge on the surface of a strongly-correlated material
to trigger bulk switching of electronic state. Functional at room temperature and triggered by a potential of only 1 V, the switching mechanism provides a novel
building block for ultra low power devices, non-volatile memory and optical switches based on a new device concept.
