Tool and die makers have always looked for the perfect solution that includes a hard and tough surface produced from easily workable but wear-resistant material. To this end, ion implantation, which ...

Silicon is the main material in electronic engineering. All information and computing technologies that play a key role in modern civilization are based on silicon: computers, communications, ...

The feature size of silicon-based transistors is approaching the theoretical limit, which puts forward higher requirements for the “atomic level manufacturing” of semiconductors. The basic idea of ...

Titanium has a tendency to gall when in rubbing contact with itself and other surfaces. A number of techniques have been developed to engineer the titanium surface and overcome this problem: In the ...

PITTSBURGH, Pa., USA -- II‐VI Incorporated, a leading global provider of foundry ion implantation services and support to the microelectronics industry, today announced the introduction of heated ion ...

Researchers from Skoltech, MIPT, and the RAS Institute of Nanotechnology of Microelectronics have achieved a five-fold increase in the capacitance of carbon nanowalls, a material used in the ...

Introducing a vertical arrangement of n and p layers into the drift layer of semiconductors to enable bipolar operation is a way around the 'unipolar limit' problem in semiconductors. But defect ...

The ion implanter market has been a stable, if not a sleepy, business. The last big event took place in 2011, when Applied Materials re-entered the ion implanter market by acquiring Varian, the ...

China Electronics Technology Group (CETC) has announced the development of ion implanters for 28nm process fabrication, marking another breakthrough in China's homegrown semiconductor front-end ...
