Introduction
3D transistors employ a single gate stacked on top
of two vertical gates allowing for essentially three
times the surface area for electrons to travel,
without increasing the size of the gate.
The Gate is the terminal that drives the transistor
on and off, and acts like a capacitance where
charge is stored making the channel conductive.
When the gate is charged, it creates an inversion
layer between the Source and the Drain,
where electrons can flow.

Operation
3D or Tri-Gate transistors form conducting channels
on three sides of a vertical fin structure, providing
fully depleted operation and tighter control on
the channel.

Conclusion
The new chip technology, called tri-gate
transistors, replaces flat, two-dimensional streams
of transistors with a 3D structure.
The technology will allow manufacturers to create
transistors that are faster, smaller and more powerefficient which will be used in the next generation
of desktops, laptops and mobile chips.
Tri-Gate transistors are an important innovation
needed to continue Moores Law.
