Nixie tube is an electronic device for displaying numerals or other information using glow discharge. A potential difference is applied between two electrodes in a glass tube containing low-pressure gas. The flow of electric current through the gas makes plasma. This phenomenon is...

Researchers have demonstrated the high-performance potential of an experimental transistor made of a semiconductor called beta gallium oxide, which could bring new ultra-efficient switches for applications such as the power grid, military ships and aircraft. The semiconductor is...
