Transistor flow control

Article Abstract:

Researchers at the University of California at Berkeley have created the first transistors that electrically controls molecules and these nanoscale transistors could lead to labs-on-a-chip, which work without moving parts. The team expects to link nanofluidic transistors together into an integrated circuit within the year 2005 as the next step to harnessing massive numbers of transistors in parallel.
