Making silicon wafers in space could enable building ultra-pure silicon wafers, but at a prohibitively high cost.

Much of the decline of that nation can be attributed to a ferocious sense of American exceptionalism, and the idea that their ...

The US Department of Commerce has signed a preliminary memorandum of terms with Macom Technology to provide up to $70 million ...

Imec, a research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, has announced a significant milestone in silicon photonics with the successful demonstration of electrically driven ...

Imec has  demonstrated electrically-driven GaAs-based multi-quantum-well nano-ridge laser diodes fully, monolithically fabricated on 300 mm silicon wafers ...

GaAs is one of the most important compound semiconductor materials because it is used not only for infrared LDs and infrared and red LEDs1 but also used for high frequency electronic devices2 which ...

A Belgian-Canadian research team claims to have found a way to develop gallium arsenide (GaAs) solar cells at a lower cost while maintaining high power conversion efficiencies. The scientists said ...
