Of course. Transistors are the base of all computer processors. They are the successor to the vacuum tube.

Yes, today's computers use transistors and microprocessors. Smaller transistors subset the amount of RAM that is local to the CPU at any given moment.
Yes, Kodak film is still used in many cameras today. It is used in many places! did you know
they can't
Silicon and Germanium are the elements used in transistors
The transistor gave the technology world a huge boost, which is what originally started up modern computers today which use 32nanometer transistors that switch to 1 and to 0. Transistors have created the world we live in today that includes much more technologically advanced computers that get twice as fast each year. -Room for improvement-
Yes, germanium was the only material used in transistors from when they were invented in 1947 until 1954 when the first successful silicon transistor was made. However the use of germanium still dominated transistors until the silicon mesa transistor was made commercially available by Fairchild Semiconductor in 1958. Development of the silicon planar transistor by Fairchild Semiconductor the next year ultimately made the integrated circuit possible. While almost all transistors today are silicon, there are still uses for germanium transistors so a few types are still made.
Yes people still use bipolar junction transistors today because of its high switching speed.

yes it is still used today
Power transistors are transistors that are used in high-power amplifiers and power supplies.
Transistors are used in any electrical somponent including amplifiers, remote controls etc.
the tank is still used today. For example the M1 Abrams is still used

long houses are not still used today
The primary reason that NPN transistors are used more often than PNP transistors is that they usually operate faster (at higher frequencies) because the mobility of the current carriers in NPN transistors (electrons) is much higher than that of the current carriers in PNP transistors (holes).
