At Texas A&M University, experimental particle physicist Dr. Rupak Mahapatra spends his days chasing some of the faintest ...

RALEGH – Researchers at North Carolina State University have discovered a new distinct form of silicon called Q-silicon which, among other interesting properties, is ferromagnetic at room temperature.

Silicone’s composition gives it a synthetic polymer structure with a silicon-oxygen backbone, making it more resistant to ...

Silicon is the gold-standard in modern-day electronics because it is a highly stable and efficient semiconductor material. It acts as an electrical conductor in certain conditions and an electrical ...

The 300mm silicon carbide wafer targets higher production capacity for power electronics and advanced system integration.

Scientists have used pressure with a twisting shear to permanently deform silicon, an important material for electronics. The resulting changes in silicon's microstructure produce material phases that ...

Aluminium silicon carbide ceramics, notably in the form of Al4SiC4, have garnered considerable interest due to their exceptional mechanical and thermal properties. These materials are distinguished by ...
