(Nanowerk News) The carrier concentration and conductivity in p-type monovalent copper semiconductors can be significantly enhanced by adding alkali metal impurities, as shown recently by Tokyo Tech ...

What Is A P-Type Semiconductor? A p-type semiconductor is a type of semiconductor material that shows increased conductivity when donor impurities are introduced. These donor atoms are typically ...

A new type of semiconductor that can store information using electric fields may lead to more energy-efficient computers, ultra-precise sensors, and technologies that convert signals between ...

A group of Korean researchers have recently succeeded in developing new p-type semiconductor materials and thin-film transistors that will lead the innovation of the semiconductor industry. These new ...

Many modern electronic devices we use daily owe their existence to the process of semiconductor doping. Doped semiconductors are the result of careful modifications ...

A recent article in Nature Communications introduced a method for precise p- and n-type substitutional doping of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors. This method was applied for the one-step growth of ...

A semiconductor is a material with electrical conductivity between that of a conductor (like copper) and an insulator (like glass). Unlike conductors, which allow electricity to flow freely, and ...

'Growing' electronic components directly onto a semiconductor block avoids messy, noisy oxidation scattering that slows and impedes electronic operation. A new study shows that the resulting ...

Perovskite solar cells have been the subject of much research as the next generation of photovoltaic devices. However, many challenges remain to be overcome for the practical application. One of them ...
