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 ...

A research team has developed a revolutionary two-dimensional polyaniline (2DPANI) crystal that overcomes major conductivity ...

Summary AI excels at spotting semiconductor defects, but training models for various inspection tools and textures remains a challenge. Once trained, AI outperforms traditional methods. Nordson’s ...

The creation of chiral materials from semiconductors at Cornell opens new avenues for optical sensors and displays, enhancing ...

Unlike metals or even other doped semiconductors, boron-doped diamonds remain optically ... The vibrant colors in medieval stained-glass windows result from metal nanoparticles embedded in the glass.

This can limit their use in applications, such as LEDs, where high order and low density of defects are needed. Normally, these highly ordered semiconductors require high processing temperatures.
