| Posted: 09 Sep 2014 06:38 AM PDT Scientists have married two unconventional forms of carbon -- one shaped like a soccer ball, the other a tiny diamond -- to make a molecule that conducts electricity in only one direction. This tiny electronic component, known as a rectifier, could play a key role in shrinking chip components down to the size of molecules to enable faster, more powerful devices. |
| Phosphorus a promising semiconductor: Physicists find 2-D form pays no heed to defects Posted: 09 Sep 2014 06:36 AM PDT The two-dimensional form of phosphorus may be a useful, flaw-resistant semiconductor for electronics. Theory shows the material's electronic properties are not affected by point defects or grain boundaries. |
| Layered graphene sandwich for next generation electronics Posted: 08 Sep 2014 06:36 AM PDT Sandwiching layers of graphene with white graphene could produce designer materials capable of creating high-frequency electronic devices, scientists have found. |
