Chinese researchers at Peking University have unveiled a potentially game-changing silicon-free transistor, claiming it could outperform the latest chips from Intel, TSMC, and Samsung. The innovation, based on a two-dimensional material known as bismuth oxyselenide, marks a major shift in chip architecture. The transistor employs a gate-all-around (GAAFET) design, with the gate fully enveloping the source—unlike traditional FinFET technology, which provides only partial gate coverage. This full-contact structure significantly reduces energy leakage and allows greater control over current flow, resulting in improved performance. According to the research team, the new transistor operates up to 40% faster than Intel’s latest 3nm…
