Researchers reveal that plasmons in boron-doped diamonds are driving advances in electronics, optics and quantum computing.

To maintain the conservation of net charge, the concentration of electrons (n) and holes (p) in a pure semiconductor must always be equal. Semiconductors can be doped to increase these concentrations: ...

Ion implantation is a low-temperature method of ‘doping’ semiconductor devices in which high energy charged particles (ions) are accelerated towards a semiconductor, causing the ions to ...

2D semiconductors, which are atomically ... confirming that the Nb-doped 2H-MoTe 2 films contained hole carriers, while the Re-doped films contained electron carriers. The unintentionally doped ...

Unlike metals or even other doped semiconductors, boron-doped diamonds remain optically ... Boron essentially opens up a periodic electronic “hole” in the material that has the effect of increasing ...
