The high-performance semiconductor devices powering smartphone displays, AI computing, EV batteries and more are increasingly incorporating 2D materials to overcome silicon's scaling limits. To ...

THE effects of contact resistance on temperature rise in switches are examined by R. W. J. Cockram in the Electrical Review of August 21. A factor complicating the control of electric circuits is the ...

Researchers have looked at how hydrogen-induced contact resistance could help to reduce changes in series resistance, in either TOPCon or PERC solar cells. They said degradation occurs purely at the n ...

2D transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) such as molybdenum disulphide (MoS 2) could be ideal for making next-generation optoelectronics devices. Those made from the materials so far suffer from low ...

Download this article in PDF format. Proper wiring and probing/contacting are critical to making successful measurements. When testing cells or batteries, using good engineering practices is important ...

As semiconductor chips become increasingly thinner, the components inside chips are locked in a fierce race to achieve the ultimate ultra-thin state. However, this has presented a structural ...
