Applying a high magnetic field simulates microgravity conditions that suppress melt convection in germanium single crystal ...

Now, in a recent study published in Science China Chemistry, led by Professor Yao Xiao from the College of Chemistry and Materials Engineering at Wenzhou University, a team of researchers has proposed ...

The single crystals currently used in semiconductors, electronic devices, and optical devices can't take the heat. This is because the materials typically used to make them—such as iridium and ...

Researchers in Taiwan have discovered that in polysilicon production the crucible angular speed affects the oxygen concentration near the crucible wall, which in turn affects the wafers’ mechanical ...

Copper (Cu) foil, with its exceptional electrical and thermal conductivity, serves as a foundational material for integrated circuits, high-frequency communication, and advanced energy technologies.

SiC and GaN are clearly making an impact in power RF and power electronics markets, but there remains the persistent challenge of crystal quality, reliability and yield, particularly for very high ...

Researchers from Huazhong University of Science and Technology and Hebei University have optimized the nucleation process by regulating the interactions between the epitaxial layer and the substrate.
