A new metasurface design greatly improves light emission in atomically thin materials, offering a path to low-power, flexible ...

Sep 13, 2022: Researchers discover a new type of surface lattice resonance (Nanowerk News) High-index dielectric nanostructures supporting electric and magnetic resonances have emerged as new building ...

In silicon wafer and cell production, the surface of the wafer is usually given a texture of tiny pyramid shapes, which serve to reduce reflection and trap more light in the cell.

It melts at 1410 C. The electronic configuration of the silicon atom is: (Ne)(3s) 2 (3p) 2, and the atomic radius is 0.132 nm. Silicon has the diamond cubic crystal structure with a lattice parameter ...

Thermal oxide is the real on-off switch for your computer. The nanometers-thick film on the surface of silicon transistors helps turn on and off the flow of electricity through the transistor ...

passivated surface with few defects. It is much easier to control the composition of elemental silicon than to achieve consistent ratios of the component elements in a non-stoichiometric ternary alloy ...

Researchers at the Huaqiao University in China have fabricated a four-terminal (4T) perovskite-silicon ... lattice strain of the bulk perovskite film, and form a bromine-rich perovskite surface ...

Because the silicon germanium lattice is larger than the silicon lattice ... and the ends of the dislocations can travel up to the top surface. High densities of dislocations (106 cm2 and greater) ...

Frame (a) shows a schematic of the Nanonet, a lattice structure of Titanium disilicide (TiSi2), coated with silicon (Si) particles to form the active component for Lithium-ion storage. (b) A ...
