Ever wondered what the most abundant element on Earth is? Or how the elements that make up our planet compare to those floating out in the vast universe?

Researchers have come up with a way to turn silicon into a direct bandgap semiconductor, opening the door to the manufacture of ultrathin silicon solar cells.

Oxides contain at least one oxygen atom, and silicon oxide may refer to silicon dioxide (SiO 2) or silicon monoxide (SiO). Silicon dioxide is a hard, glassy mineral found in materials such as rock ...

A solar cell is made of two types of semiconductors, called p-type and n-type silicon. The p-type silicon is produced by adding atoms—such as boron or gallium—that have one less electron in their ...

Korean researchers have used thermal and wet gravity separation (WGS) to separate EVA from reclaimed silicon powder in end-of ...

Today, Adobe announced the release of Photoshop Elements 2023 and Premier Elements 2023, its photo and video editing apps for the Mac that guide users through a wide variety of creative projects and ...

silicon-based material sciences, or the related field of organometallic chemistry, particularly embracing the elements of Group IV. The award will be granted regardless of race, gender, age, religion, ...

While hydrogen is indeed the most abundant element in the universe, the story is quite different on Earth. Here, gravity and ...
