(Nanowerk News) Halide perovskite is perhaps the most promising candidate for next-generation solar cells, with the efficiency quickly approaching that of commercial silicon cell but at a much lower ...

(Nanowerk News) Two-dimensional materials are essential for developing new ultra-compact electronic devices, but producing defect-free 2D materials is a challenge. However, discovery of new types of ...

A study published in Molecules and led by researchers from the Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics (CIOMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences demonstrated how deep learning can ...

Scientists have discovered that a "single atomic defect" in a layered 2D material can hold onto quantum information for microseconds at room temperature, underscoring the potential of 2D materials in ...

Defects such as cracks in a material are responsible for everything from malfunctioning microchips to earthquakes. Now MIT engineers have developed a model to predict a defect's birthplace, its ...

AMES, Iowa – Materials engineers don’t like to see line defects in functional materials. The structural flaws along a one-dimensional line of atoms generally degrades performance of electrical ...

Demonstrating that a material thought to be always chemically inert, hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), can be turned chemically active holds potential for a new class of catalysts with a wide range of ...

SEMVision™ H20 enables better and faster analysis of nanoscale defects in leading-edge chips Second-generation “cold field emission” technology provides high-resolution imaging AI image recognition ...
