A unique methodology to explore alternative interconnect metals for the Ångström era. About five years ago, imec researchers started to explore binary and ternary compounds for replacing Cu as future ...

Compound nanotubes can be produced in various ways: rolling up layered materials, coating pores in templates, or eliminating the core of a core-shell nanowire. In the case of ternary compound ...

The catchphrase "bazinga" — a zinger commonly uttered by Dr. Sheldon Cooper, a fictional theoretical physicist on the TV show "The Big Bang Theory" — has inspired the creation of a novel compound, ...

A method has been discovered to easily predict the structure of materials using intuitive information such as the electrical properties or size of atoms without complex computational calculations. The ...

A team from the Southern University of Science and Technology in China has designed a small molecule donor to act as a third component in ternary organic cells. It helped to achieve a power conversion ...
