AUSTRALIA-TECHNOLOGY-TRANSISTOR
A handout image created on May 24, 2010 by the Centre for Quantum Computer Technology shows the world's smallest transistor (the bright cluster in the centre of the left image and magnified in the right image) built with just seven atoms in a single silicon crystal and measuring four nanometres in length at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Sydney. The quantum transistor can be used to regulate and control electrical current flow like a commercial transistor but it represents a key step into a new age of atomic-scale miniaturisation and super-fast, super-powerful computers.
