Researchers reveal that plasmons in boron-doped diamonds are driving advances in electronics, optics and quantum computing.

(Nanowerk News) Professor Jiwoong Yang and his research team at the Department of Energy Science and Engineering, Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science & Technology (DGIST; President Kunwoo Lee) ...

Here, we chart the evolution of the science of optical refrigeration in rare-earth-doped solids and semiconductors from its origins through to the present day. There are several factors that limit ...

Shallow defects are often introduced intentionally through doping to control the carrier concentration and type (n-type or p-type) in semiconductors. For example, in silicon, phosphorus atoms act as ...
