This video explains how semiconductors work and how their electrical properties are controlled through energy band gaps and doping. Semiconductors are materials with conductivity between conductors ...

A recent article in Nature Communications introduced a method for precise p- and n-type substitutional doping of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors. This method was applied for the one-step growth of ...

Many modern electronic devices we use daily owe their existence to the process of semiconductor doping. Doped semiconductors are the result of careful modifications ...

Semiconductors are the foundation of all modern electronics. Now, researchers have developed a new method where organic semiconductors can become more conductive with the help of air as a dopant. The ...

Professor Jiwoong Yang and his research team at the Department of Energy Science and Engineering, Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science & Technology (DGIST; President Kunwoo Lee) successfully developed ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Doping, which can provide charge carriers to semiconductors, is an essential technology for semiconductors and devices, and it can be classified as n- and p-doping depending on ...

A research team has successfully developed a new technology to control doping at the nucleus (seed) phase to increase the performance of semiconductor nanocrystals. The study uncovered how the doping ...

Doping in semiconductors is adding a small amount of impurities into a very pure semiconductor material. It might sound strange to add impurities on purpose, but this is a critical to make ...

The latest chemistry news, including important research advances, business and policy trends, chemical safety practices, career guidance, and more. Electronic devices based on organic semiconductors ...

The new method involves dipping the conductive plastic into a special salt solution – a photocatalyst – and then illuminating it with light for a short time resulting in a p-doped conductive plastic ...
