'Extreme' transistor can withstand heat of 1000-plus F — priming it for use in Venus-bound probes
SMRTR summary
Japanese scientists built a transistor that works at temperatures up to 1,110°F, far beyond what current technology can handle. This breakthrough could enable long-lasting Venus surface probes, since past landers survived only hours. It may also replace bulky cooling systems inside jet engines.
