Silicon has the diamond cubic crystal structure with a lattice parameter of 0.543 nm. The nearest neighbor distance is 0.235 nm. The diamond cubic crystal structure has an fcc lattice with a basis of ...

As great as silicon is for semiconductor applications, it has one weakness in that using it for lasers isn’t very practical. Never say never though, as it turns out that you can now grow ...

interspersed throughout the silicon crystal lattice in a process called "doping." The choice of dopant determines what properties the finished semiconductor will have. There exist a huge number of ...
