At Texas A&M University, experimental particle physicist Dr. Rupak Mahapatra spends his days chasing some of the faintest signals in the universe. His lab designs cryogenic semiconductor detectors ...

The 300mm silicon carbide wafer targets higher production capacity for power electronics and advanced system integration.

Physicists found why holes move slower than electrons in silicon: not defects, but higher intrinsic mass, supporting ...

RALEGH – Researchers at North Carolina State University have discovered a new distinct form of silicon called Q-silicon which, among other interesting properties, is ferromagnetic at room temperature.

Veeco Instruments Inc. and research hub imec have developed a 300 mm high volume manufacturing process that allows for the ...

Silicon is the gold-standard in modern-day electronics because it is a highly stable and efficient semiconductor material. It acts as an electrical conductor in certain conditions and an electrical ...

The resistance faced by electrons while traveling through the copper connections between transistors within a chip produces a lot of heat. In contrast, photons are packets of light without any mass or ...
