India’s buying of solar photovoltaic (PV) cells from China went up by 141%. This big rise is likely because India is now ...

Until recently, most studies on subgap states focused on amorphous IGZO, as sufficiently large single-crystal IGZO (sc-IGZO) ...

These properties make diamond perhaps the ultimate theoretical power semiconductor, ideal for ultra-high-power, ...

There are fundamentally two ways to generate electricity. The first is based on electromagnetic induction, which remains the ...

How Democrats Drove Silicon Valley Into Trump’s Arms Marc Andreessen explains the newest faction of conservatism.

Abstract In this paper, based on the first principles, we study the properties of silicon carbide nanowires (SiCNWs) passivated by monovalent hydrogen (H), heptavalent fluorine (F) and chlorine (Cl) ...

What's a CPU made of? What's the difference between a CPU and a GPU? Read our layman's overview of the central processing unit, or CPU.

Researchers in the Netherlands have investigated how carrier-selective contacts may help achieve stronger performance in back-contact (BC) crystalline silicon solar cells and have predicted ...

Semiconductor Doping The addition of an atom with fewer valence electrons than silicon, such as boron, creates holes, electrons that are missing in the valence band. This is called p-type doping. The ...

Researchers have come up with a way to turn silicon into a direct bandgap semiconductor, opening the door to the manufacture of ultrathin silicon solar cells.

Electronic materials are designed for properties like conduction, insulation, magnetism, and energy storage, forming the foundation of nearly all modern technologies across electronics, energy, and ...
