From quartz sand to silicon wafers, the manufacturing process is critical for achieving the purity and quality needed for ...

When mobile charge carriers, also known as itinerant electrons, interact with the strong exchange magnetic fields associated ...

In an interview with pv magazine, Empa scientist Mirjana Dimitrievska explains that the CIGS photovoltaic technology, while promising for efficiency and flexible applications, faces persistent ...

Researchers in Finland have experimentally realized a long-predicted class of quantum material: a two-dimensional topological ...

Solid-state batteries could be safer and more energy-dense than today’s lithium-ion technology, but finding materials that allow ions to move quickly through solid electrolytes has been difficult.

Long-established in accelerator physics, bent crystals are now being explored as tools to measure the fundamental properties ...

Abstract: To address the challenges of inadequate soft-sensing accuracy and generalization capability for the quality-related variable, the V/G value, in the growth process of traditional ...

Researchers have found that isotopic purity is the "missing link" for making silicon a world-class quantum material.

Quantum technologies, computers or other devices that operate leveraging quantum mechanical effects, rely on the precise ...

We are now one generation of technological alchemy away from the smallest possible silicon microchips.

Atoms measure roughly 0.1 nanometers across, a scale so small that scientists spent more than six decades developing instruments capable of resolving them with any clarity. The journey from the first ...
