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

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

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 ...

These elements have only three electrons in their valence shell, so where N-type semiconductors are doped with electron ... a kind of hole is created where an electron might have been.

These holes allow electricity to flow through the diamond while ... This discovery suggests similar phenomena might exist in other doped semiconductors, potentially opening new research directions.

Excitons, encountered in technologies like solar cells and TVs, are quasiparticles formed by an electron and a positively charged "hole," moving together in a semiconductor. Created when an electron ...

ASU's new R&D facility is a key component of America's plan to bolster semiconductors and high-tech manufacturing.

An artist’s representation of a hole etched into alternating layers of silicon oxide and silicon nitride using plasma, to make 3D NAND flash memory. Researchers want to refine how they make ...
