How Semiconductors and Transistors Work

John C. Bean - WeCanFigureThisOut.org

This podcast is drawn from the "Virtual Lab" of WeCanFigureThisOut.org. This Virtual Lab uses 3D virtual reality animations to explain electronics, microelectronics and nanotechnology. This podcast explains how semiconductors work and how they are made into the transistor switches that power modern integrated cirtuits.
