(Nanowerk News) A model system created by stacking a pair of monolayer semiconductors is giving physicists a simpler way to study confounding quantum behavior, from heavy fermions to exotic quantum ...
A ‘hole’ arises due to a missing electron in the valence band, which normally participates in covalent bonding between atoms. The absence of an electron creates a local absence of a negative charge, ...
University of Warwick and National Research Council of Canada scientists achieve record-breaking electrical conductivity in ...
A research team has successfully developed a new technology that converts the conductivity properties of semiconductors with just one laser process. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech ...
The quest for materials capable of combining semiconductor properties with superconductivity represents a major challenge for modern electronics. These hybrid materials could pave the way for ...
Semiconductor designer Lattice Semiconductor (NASDAQ:LSCC) will be reporting results this Monday after market close. Here’s what to expect. Lattice Semiconductor met analysts’ revenue expectations ...
Power cube: Researchers claim that cubic boron arsenide is the best semiconducting material ever found, and perhaps even the best possible one. (Courtesy: Christine Daniloff/MIT) Cubic boron arsenide ...
Doping in semiconductors is adding a small amount of impurities into a very pure semiconductor material. It might sound strange to add impurities on purpose, but this is a critical to make ...
