For decades, ferromagnetic materials have driven technologies like magnetic hard drives, magnetic random access memories and ...

MIT physicist 'Riccardo Comin' successfully mapped an electron’s shape in motion, unlocking breakthroughs in quantum physics, superconductors, and quantum computing.

We investigate the effect of asymmetric configurations on the heterogate germanium electron-hole bilayer tunnel FET (TFET) and assess the improvement that they provide in terms of boosting the ...

Researchers in Malaysia have simulated a mixed cation perovskite solar cell integrating tin and germanium in the absorber. By modulating the perovksite layer thickness, they were able to achieve ...

After placing a tiny dolomite crystal in a solution of calcium and magnesium, the team gently pulsed the electron beam 4,000 times over two hours, dissolving away the defects.

In atomic physics and quantum chemistry, the electron configuration is the arrangement of electrons in an atom, molecule, or other physical structure (e.g., a crystal). Like other elementary ...

China has announced export restrictions to take effect from Aug. 1 on some gallium and germanium products, metals used in computer chips and other products, citing national security interests.

The design of vertical and lateral PIN Ge-on-Si photodetectors was motivated by the disparity in electron and hole mobilities. In the case of vertical PIN junction detectors, configuring the slab ...

This proof-of-concept breakthrough means vertical transistors made of germanium tin are promising candidates for future low-power, high-performance chips and possibly quantum computers. Germanium–tin ...

“The germanium–tin system we have been testing makes it possible to overcome the physical limitations of silicon technology,” says Qing-Tai Zhao. In experiments, the germanium–tin transistor exhibits ...
