Artificial intelligence is helping engineers build solar panels out of a “miracle material”. Scientists have long been excited about the possibility of new perovskite tandem solar cells, which could help bring the vastly improved efficiency of perovskite to mass production. They have an efficiency of more than 33 percent, dramatically higher than conventional silicon solar […]
Graphene, a material that consists of a single layer of carbon atoms, has been celebrated by many as the “next big thing” in material science. However, according to Purdue University researchers, its thermal properties may not be as revolutionary as previously thought. “Graphene is the first two-dimensional material that human beings ever created,” said Xiulin […]
The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Office of Science is the nation’s largest supporter of basic research in the physical sciences, the steward of 10 DOE national laboratories, and the lead federal agency supporting fundamental research for energy production and security. The DOE is involved with inventing new materials with unique properties and advancing technologies […]
The November/December issue of Advanced Materials & Processes magazine has an editorial focus on Testing and Characterization.
Thermo Fisher Scientific, Hillsboro, Ore., the world leader in serving science, introduced the Thermo Scientific Meridian EX System— an electron-beam-based failure analysis solution designed to enable precise fault localization on advanced semiconductor logic technologies that helps users localize defects within complex power networks and achieve 10X improvement in spatial resolution compared to optical fault isolation solutions.
