TASS/. Researchers from the Skoltech Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech) and Tomas Jones Watson IBM Research Center have found out that silicon nanotubes are flattened under the impact ...

The scientists focused their analysis on carbon nanotubes made of silicon carbide, a substrate material that is extensively used in the electric vehicle (EV) industry and the PV sector ...

Indirect-bandgap semiconductors, such as silicon, usually show only weak terahertz ... graphite and carbon nanotubes were formed. By moving the laser focus, nanotubes up to 8 μm could be grown ...

"We successfully developed the world's first tensor processor chip (TPU) based on carbon nanotubes," Zhiyong Zhang ... but traditional silicon-based semiconductor technology is increasingly ...

Carbon nanotubes are basically tiny rolled-up cylindrical sheets of graphene. But even though they exhibit better electrical and thermal properties than silicon, synthesizing high-purity tubes and ...

Semiconducting inks based on carbon nanotubes have mobilities that are comparable with those of polycrystalline silicon, and could one day match the performance of single-crystal silicon.

Scientists in China have built a new type of tensor processing unit (TPU) — a special type of computer chip — using carbon ...

Now, Yuichiro Kato and two colleagues, all at the RIKEN Center for Advanced Photonics, have pinned down exactly how UCPL works in single-walled carbon nanotubes—drinking-straw-like cylinders of ...

In previous studies of thin film wrinkling on soft substrates, the mechanics models usually assume plane-strain deformation, which was found to disagree with experimental observations for narrow thin ...
