Scientists create perovskite film semiconductors at room temperature using lasers, which is a revolution for chips and solar ...

Excitons are pairs of bound negatively charged electrons and positively charged holes that form in semiconductors, enabling ...

UNSW and Jolywood studied the thermal stability of laser-assisted fired TOPCon solar cells during module fabrication and high-temperature stress, identifying hydrogen-related defect dynamics as the ...

Imagine a battlefield where missiles are intercepted mid-air with beams of light, drones are neutralized in seconds, and the cost of firing a weapon is measured in pennies rather than millions. This ...

This video explains what a diode is and how it controls the direction of current in electronic circuits. Diodes allow current to flow in only one direction, making them essential for rectification, ...

Anthony Fiorito, a senior engineering physics major at Florida Polytechnic University, was published as first author of a study that found that when infused with a specific dye, peacock feathers can ...

The laser headlight is a bright new technology which is being adopted by numerous automakers, such as Audi and BMW, who are looking to get a step ahead of the game when it comes to illuminating the ...

Blog posts represent the views of CFR fellows and staff and not those of CFR, which takes no institutional positions. For Israel, as for Ukraine, defending against drones has been a difficult and ...

Semiconductor laser diodes (SLDs) are often packaged with a photodiode. The output current from this photodiode can be monitored to regulate the output power intensity of the laser diode. SLDs, ...

Researchers have discovered the mechanism for supercurrent rectification, in which current flows primarily in one direction in a superconductor. By using a specific iron-based superconductor, they ...
