DIY Transistors: Tools Needed to Build Transistors from Zero

I saw some amateur DIY transistors on the Internet, such as Neil Steiner and Jim. Among them, the most noticeable home-made transistor comes from a craftsman Jeri Ellsworth who understands the physics of semiconductor components. She built a small manufacturing facility (or fab) at home in 2010 and produced some simple circuits using homemade chips. Interestingly, no other complete record of DIY transistor data can be found after that. This may be because this type of manufacturing inevitably...

Overcoming the problem of positive and negative voltage design triggers the use of two-way thyristor

In an AC power source, the voltage is sometimes positive and sometimes negative. For designers who do not use bidirectional thyristors very often, "negative voltage" may sound strange because there is no integrated circuit in the world that operates with a negative voltage. However, in some applications, it is more appropriate to drive the triac with a negative output. In an AC power source, the voltage is sometimes positive and sometimes negative. For designers who do not use bidirectional...
