A new study in npj & Applications shows that natural vermiculite can be exfoliated into nanosheets with wide band gaps and antiferromagnetic order—offering a sustainable path to advanced electronic ...

Researchers have demonstrated that by using a semiconductor with flexible bonds, the material can be moulded into various structures using nano containers, without altering its composition, the ...

A newly discovered silicone variant is a semiconductor, University of Michigan researchers have discovered—upending ...

“There’s a widening achievement gap in this country and it has worsened since the pandemic, especially for grade eight,” Carr said. MORE: Many students have still not regained pandemic-era ...

we analyze the effect of the P-CIGS band gap grading profiles (Ga-composition) on the electrical performances of thin film solar cell. The simulated structure is as 1.0 μm-graded-CIGS/10 nmN-CdS/150 ...

The band gap change was discussed through the degenerate semiconductors as well as nanostructured semiconducting materials of the energy gap confinement effect. Deposition of TCO based on ZnO:In was ...

With a large direct band gap of ~3.3 eV and a large exciton binding energy of ~60 meV, ZnO semiconductor is still withstanding separately in the field of material research. Especially, ZnO has been ...

Variation in ZnO nanostructures caused a shift in the near-band edge (NBE) region. In this study, 3.27, 3.26, 3.25, 3.23, and 3.22 eV energy emissions correspond to nanowires, nanorods, microrods, ...

a sufficient energy band gap is preferable which restricts the electron-hole recombination. It is also stated that the effect on electrical resistivity by surface modification of ZnO and doped ...
