A nanotransistor is a transistor -- the component that acts as an electronic signal switch or amplifier -- that is near the scale of a billionth of a meter (or nanometer) in size. 5, record 1, English, - nanotransistor

In November 2001, Bell Labs scientists announced their ability to create in a laboratory individually-addressable nanotransistors at the single molecule level. About 10 million of such nanotransistors would fit on the head of a pin. 5, record 1, English, - nanotransistor

Le transistor SET mis au point par ces scientifiques hollandais mesurait seulement 1 nanomètre de large et 20 nanomètres de long. À peine deux mois après cette percée technologique, IBM annonçait, en août 2001, la mise au point d'un nanotransistor 50 000 fois plus fin qu'un cheveu. Ce mini-transistor est basé sur un nanotube de carbone, une molécule cylindrique, composée d'atomes de carbone, 500 fois plus fine que le silicium. Ce procédé ouvrait la voie vers des processeurs beaucoup plus performants que ceux d'aujourd'hui, puisqu'ils contiendraient 10 000 fois plus de transistors dans le même espace. 3, record 1, French, - nanotransistor

Los nanotransistores son dispositivos que se pueden construir con base en estructuras de carbono, según la quilaridad y la disposición de la nanoestructura. Un nanotransistor es la estructura básica y fundamental para la construcción de otros dispositivos de mayor complejidad, con desempeños más eficientes y eficaces, comparados con su homólogo semiconductor de silicio. 1, record 1, Spanish, - nanotransistor
