July 22, 2021 — Silicon, a semi-metal, bonds in its natural form with four other elements and its three-dimensional structure takes the form of a tetrahedron. For a long time, it seemed impossible to achieve the ...
Aug. 30, 2022 — Non-Bravais lattices were created by introducing a second non-equivalent lattice point. Near-infrared light is confined within a nanodisk periodic structure with controlled bound states in the ...
Feb. 16, 2021 — A research team develops a transparent silicon without visible light loss by controlling the silicon atomic ...
Jan. 6, 2021 — Researchers fabricated regular arrays of iron-coated silicon crystals that are atomically smooth. The defect-free pyramidal composition of the crystals impart magnetic properties that will enhance ...
Jan. 6, 2022 — A pioneering type of patented computer memory known as ULTRARAM™ has been demonstrated on silicon wafers in what is a major step towards its large-scale manufacture. ULTRARAM™ is novel type of ...
Aug. 16, 2021 — Deuterium, a heavier but less abundant version of the hydrogen atom, has many practical applications. Unfortunately, producing deuterium and using it to protect silicon-based semiconductors requires ...
July 6, 2021 — Chemical engineers have developed a machine-learning model that can predict a compound's oxidation state, a property that is so essential that many chemists argue it must be included in the ...
Dec. 1, 2023 — Friction is hard to predict and control, especially since surfaces that come in contact are rarely perfectly flat. New experiments demonstrate that the amount of friction between two silicon ...
Feb. 16, 2021 — Researchers used a particle accelerator and co-precipitation to study the chemical reactivity of single rutherfordium atoms. Such experiments will continue the advancement of relativistic chemistry ...
Oct. 19, 2021 — Researchers are applying a new technique to identify defects in silicon solar cells that cause a drop in efficiency. The lessons learned at the atomic level could lead to improvements in the way ...
