Field-effect transistor
For Field-effect transistor we have a term and definition in Transistors.
Field-effect Transistor (Transistors) 
The most common type of modern transistor, and the type of transistor used in integrated circuits. The field-effect transistor is so named because an incoming weak electrical signal creates an electrical field across a section of semiconductor. This field causes a second electrical current to flow across the semiconductor, identical to the first weak signal, but stronger.
