Researchers at the Jülich Research Center and the Leibniz Institute for Innovative Microelectronics (IHP) have developed a ...

Figure 3 – Model of a diamond structure superimposed on the artificial diamond structure (as in Figure 1). The red spheres indicate the atoms in the crystal lattice of diamond or silicon; the grey ...

Researchers at the University of California, Riverside have unlocked a hidden power within silicon, the backbone of modern electronics. Their findings could transform how future devices are built, ...

The pores in the new three-dimensional structure resemble the crystal structure of diamonds. Crystalline silicon also has a diamond crystal structure. (see figure 3). Figure 3: computer generated ...

Silicon is the 14th element on the Periodic Table -- but, from concrete to microchips to alien life, it has the capacity to be so much more.
