Most semiconductor materials are rigid and water-repelling, which aren’t ideal qualities for interacting with soft, wet biological tissues. Sihong Wang and his group at the University of Chicago ...

That’s exactly what happened when the COVID-19 pandemic exposed major weaknesses in the global semiconductor supply chain. Suddenly, to name just one consequence, new vehicles couldn’t be ...

The resulting images allowed the team to assess the photocarriers as they diffuse from one semiconductor material to the other. In the research paper, the researchers discuss how the ...
