An ultrathin semiconductor that conducts electricity using positively charged ‘holes’ might clear the way for next-generation electronic devices.

Researchers at South Korea's Institute for Basic Science chemically converted a single tungsten diselenide crystal into a ...

Single-orientation nucleation mechanism of monolayer MoSi2N4 induced by surface steps on Cu(111) single crystals. (Image: IMR) As electronic devices continue to shrink, conventional semiconductors ...

A transistor normally requires several fundamentally different materials—a semiconductor to carry current, an insulating dielectric to control it and metallic contacts through which current enters and ...

Successful development of high-performance amorphous P-type oxide semiconductor using tellurium-selenium composite oxide. Professor Yong-Young Noh from the Department of Chemical Engineering at Pohang ...

Researchers have developed two new organic semiconductor materials using a light-driven chemical reaction. The paper is ...

Semiconductor crystals grow from tiny nuclei, but the position of these nuclei is difficult to control precisely and can affect the crystal’s properties. An approach using ‘etching flux’ has now been ...

The single crystals currently used in semiconductors, electronic devices, and optical devices can't take the heat. This is because the materials typically used to make them—such as iridium and ...
