Perovskite-silicon hybrid solar cells, launching in 2026, promise 34% higher efficiency than traditional panels. This ...

Silicon has reigned supreme in electronics for the better part of a century, and now a new version might help extend its use into the future. Engineers at North Carolina State University (NCSU) have ...

Researchers have developed a new theoretical model explaining one way to make black silicon. The new etching model precisely explains how fluorine gas breaks certain bonds in the silicon more often ...

In the center of this technological transition, Future Leading SiSiC/RBSIC/silcon carbide Cantilever Paddle products are emerging as a key solution for stable wafer handling and continuous kiln ...

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 ...

Laser processing of silicon materials has emerged as a transformative technique in microelectronics and photonics, enabling precise internal modifications that bypass the limitations of traditional ...

Researchers announced that they have achieved the world's first elucidation of how hydrogen produces free electrons through ...

Silicon sees the light: Elham Fadaly (left) and Alain Dijkstra in their Eindhoven lab. (Courtesy: Sicco van Grieken/SURF) A light-emitting silicon-based material with a direct band gap has been ...

Scientists have found that a “superatomic” material is the fastest and most efficient semiconductor ever. Taking advantage of a tortoise-and-hare mechanism, the new material can transport energy much ...

Dow Corning introduced four optical silicone materials for LED lighting applications this week at the Light+Building show in Frankfurt, Germany. As LEDs continue to replace conventional light sources, ...

The Silicon Industry Branch said that the main reasons for the continued price rise and the large trading volume last week include the relatively low operating rate of wafer companies. Image: PV Tech.
