"Even when challenged by staff, he continued to cherry-pick items from shelves and fled the scene as if he had done nothing ...

The silicon iron curtain that descended in 2025 may prove as consequential as the one that divided Europe for half a century. Only this time, the fault line runs through every smartphone, data center, ...

Scientists in China have constructed and tested a device that uses redox couples paired with a single triple-junction amorphous-silicon photoelectrode. When tested under a xenon lamp simulating one ...

Abstract: Subwavelength grating (SWG) couplers have attracted great attention in silicon photonics due to the flexible capacity of index tailoring for light coupling. With the intrinsic high ...

Researchers in Norway investigated the melting behavior of silicon kerf agglomerates under different atmospheres and temperatures to improve recycling for solar-grade silicon. They found that vacuum ...

Designers are utilizing an array of programmable or configurable ICs to keep pace with rapidly changing technology and AI.

A recent drill survey has discovered what might be North America's largest-known deposit of so-called "critical minerals." ...

Researchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a new vapor-deposition technique that greatly ...

The introduction of a nanometric germanium oxide layer drastically improved device performance and stability. As the global demand for clean energy accelerates, solar power continues to attract ...

Deep beneath our feet, far beyond the reach of drills or submersibles, Earth hides a solid metal heart that behaves in ways geophysicists have struggled to explain. New experiments now suggest that a ...

Physicists at Silicon Quantum Computing have developed what they say is the most accurate quantum computing chip ever engineered, after building a new kind of architecture.

While quantum computing is often portrayed as a single global race defined by qubit counts and experimental milestones, SEALSQ emphasizes that the field is in fact evolving along two fundamentally ...
