There exist a huge number of exotic semiconductor materials, almost as many as there are material science projects using them. Still, modern manufacturing is dominated by two basic types of ...

A solar cell is made of two types of semiconductors, called p-type and n-type silicon. The p-type silicon is produced by adding atoms—such as boron or gallium—that have one less electron in their ...

Their efforts led to the successful creation of a high-performance and highly stable p-type thin-film transistor (TFT). The research has been published online in Nature. Semiconductors are used in ...

Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) technology is a vital part of modern electronics, used in designing and manufacturing integrated circuits (ICs) that power many digital devices. CMOS ...

WASHINGTON ― President Donald Trump said Monday he plans to impose sweeping tariffs on steel, aluminum and copper imported to the U.S. as well as goods such as computer chips, semiconductors and ...
