We break down MOSFETs, how a tiny gate controls electron traffic, and why shrinking transistors matters for your phone’s battery and performance. From room-sized behemoths to pocket-sized microchips, we’ll trace Moore’s Law, Dennard scaling, and how engineers beat scaling limits with high-k dielectrics, metal gates, and 3D FinFETs—and what that means for the future of tech.
