A South Korean research team has, for the first time, uncovered the molecular-level mechanism by which trace amounts of impurities—known as dopants—can reverse charge polarity in organic polymer ...

A semiconductor is a material or device that only conducts electricity under certain conditions. Some elements in the periodic table, such as carbon, silicon, and germanium, are intrinsic ...

BCN (boron, carbon, and nitrogen) is a "p-type" semiconductor that operates at a thickness of a single atomic layer. An international team including researchers from the University of Tokyo discovered ...

A SnSe₂ contact increased p-type WSe₂ drive current by more than 1,000 times and enabled a billion-fold on/off ratio in ...

An ultrathin semiconductor that conducts electricity using positively charged ‘holes’ might clear the way for next-generation electronic devices.

Newswise — A group of Korean researchers have recently succeeded in developing new p-type semiconductor materials and thin-film transistors that will lead the innovation of the semiconductor industry.

ZnSc 2 S 4 exhibits a direct bandgap and can emit light from orange to blue. Its composition can be chemically tuned to switch between n-type and p-type conduction over nine orders of magnitude, ...

Smartphones and computers process information by switching the current that flows inside semiconductors on and off. The gate ...
