The idea of silicon transistor and processors is so . . . 2022. Researchers in Sweden have designed and tested the first wooden transistors. Teams at Linköping University in Norrköping, and the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, have published a paper titled Electrical current modulation in wood electrochemical transistors, which discusses the creation, capabilities, and potential of the wood electrochemical transistor (WECT) they have recently developed.
This WECT could pave the way for wood-based electronics that are more sustainable and biodegradable. Moreover, wood electronics could deliver the electronic control of living plants.
