Metamaterials—the term may sound esoteric to the layman. In science and engineering, however, this is an interesting field of research that has developed at a highly dynamic pace, particularly since ...

A silicon wafer is a thin slice of crystalline silicon typically grown using the Czochralski process, which involves pulling a crystal seed from a molten silicon bath. A silicon wafer is a thin slice ...

As traditional chip miniaturization slows, researchers have found a way to pack more computing power into the same space by stacking silicon circuits in multiple layers. The new process uses ...

Modern chips are manufactured on slabs of silicon less than a millimeter thick. But semiconductor companies try to slice these silicon wafers thinner and thinner to squeeze more performance out of ...

Private equity firm ZMC has announced via press release that it has acquired a controlling stake in Pure Wafer, the largest semiconductor silicon solutions and services company in the United States.

First successful use of vapor deposition on industrial silicon wafers delivers unprecedented durability in perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells. (Nanowerk News) Researchers from the National ...

Hongyuan Green Energy says it has produced a first batch of 40 µm monocrystalline silicon wafers that support full-size and half-cut formats, with slicing completed using the company’s in-house ...
