The modified material was then exposed to flowing ammonia at 1000 °C, which resulted in sodium-doped amorphous silicon-boron-nitride (Na-doped SiBN). Using cutting-edge spectroscopic techniques ...

And the lower cost of producing these lightweight cells, printed on flexible plastic, means that manufacturing can remain in ...

Maintaining Quality in Composites Prep for Strong Bonds . Bond failures can have severe consequences for manufacturers, ...

Ying Wu and Prof. Xiangliang Zhang (now at University of Notre Dame), successfully put forward an efficient broadband light absorber within an ultrathin amorphous silicon layer embedded with ...

Nevertheless, oxide TFT LCDs have many advantages over the standard amorphous silicon TFTs currently used in the MacBook Airs. They offer faster electron mobility, allowing smoother visuals and ...

In 1811 Gay-Lussac and Thenard probably obtained impure amorphous silicon by heating potassium with silicon tetrafluoride; however, the discovery of this element is usually credited to Berzelius ...

Thin film material own the property of bandgap and requires ten times lesser quantity of substrate material to absorb light as compared to other solar cells. These are employed in wide range of ...

Here, the 308 nm wavelength transforms 50-nm-thin layers of amorphous silicon into high-quality polycrystalline silicon with greatly enhanced electron mobility, for use in flat-panel displays for ...

An OLED MacBook Air is still in the pipeline for Apple, just not quite yet. However, 2027 MacBook Airs will at least get a display upgrade.

Monocrystalline silicon is used in the photovoltaic cells that some solar panels use to convert sunlight into electricity. Another form, amorphous silicon, is used to make the glass that covers ...
