A study revealed that a simple thermal reaction of gallium nitride with metallic magnesium results in the formation of a distinctive superlattice structure. This represents the first time researchers ...

A team led by academician Huang Ru and Professor Wu Yanqing from the School of Integrated Circuits at Peking University has ...

Scientists have found that a “superatomic” material is the fastest and most efficient semiconductor ever. Taking advantage of a tortoise-and-hare mechanism, the new material can transport energy much ...

Static electricity can be defined as a stationary charge that builds up on the surface of a material. The interaction between stationary charges, known as electrostatics, leads to two key problems: ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Nanoelectronics deal with extremely small electronic components — transistors, sensors and circuits that can fit on the tip of a needle. This technology powers our everyday lives ...

With the incessant down-scaling of electronics, traditional semiconductors like Si are encountered with insurmountable hurdles to maintain performance increase without bringing about additional issues ...

Stretchable electronics combines the electronic performance of conventional wafer-based semiconductor devices and mechanical properties of a rubber band, and thus can have very broad applications that ...
