Scientists in Germany applied vapor-based deposition techniques and laser scribed interconnection – both well established processes in existing thin-film solar manufacturing – to fabricate perovskite ...

AVX has developed tiny low-pass filters and directional couplers using a thin-film process it developed for capacitor-related problems that result from using larger, thick-film hybrids. The low-pass ...

Energy storage devices and computer screens may seem worlds apart, but they’re not. When an electrical engineering professor teamed up with and computer scientists to make a less expensive ...

Thin films continue to draw the focus of researchers. This article takes a current and closer look at their applications, variable deposition methods, and future uses. ‘Thin Film’ is a relative term ...

Addressing the staggering power and energy demands of artificial intelligence, engineers at the University of Houston have ...

Researchers prepared 2D layered, visible-light-absorbing bismuth sulfide semiconductors using a two-step process. The resulting film exhibited morphology that supported excellent semiconductor ...

(Nanowerk News) Scientists at Dongguk University have found a way to create printed p-channel thin-film transistors by using the abundantly available and environmentally-friendly copper(I) iodide ...

Conventional methods of characterizing and troubleshooting plasma-based thin-film processes frequently lack the ability to capture the full intricacies of the plasma system. Often, efforts rely on ...

Thin films play a crucial role in the fabrication of several components and devices, such as protective coatings, integrated circuits, solar cells, and optical ...

Thermoplastic films have been used in flexible medical product applications since the 1960s, when plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) blood storage bags replaced glass bottles. 1 In the 1970s, PVC ...
