This book is the fourth volume in the New Era Electronics lecture notes series, a compilation of volumes defining the important concepts tied to the electronics transition happening in the 21st ...

LMU researchers have directly measured a physical phenomenon that was theoretically described all the way back in 1933 – the polaron. When an electron travels through a polar crystalline solid, its ...

But I believe the role of a basic scientist like me is not to just ride the current wave, but to carve out new channels and ...

Dr. Simon Min Sze, a semiconductor physics visionary most notable for his contributions to the invention of the world's first floating-gate metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), ...

If you aspire to become a semiconductor expert, majoring in electronic engineering, computer science, or materials engineering in university is advisable. At this stage, foundational subjects like ...

2D materials are widely seen as a promising path toward better computer chips. Researchers at TU Wien have now shown that ...

Chiral molecules have structures that cannot be superimposed on their mirror image, like left and right hands. Many ...

Semiconductor engineering teams have long relied on an iterative simulation workflow: define the scenario, prepare the model, ...

How it works Schematic showing how a five-electron droplet (shown in blue) is transported inside the selected potential minimum of a SAW. Electrostatic gates (yellow) are used to guide the electron ...

Tiny grains of dust floating inside a glowing plasma should, according to decades of theory, push and pull on each other in ...
