With the term ‘electronics’, there are many things you can associate, especially theelectronic circuit board componentslike transistors, diodes, ICs and so on. If you are completely aware of these components, you must be aware of the prevailing silicon uses in the manufacturing of these compone...
Structural visualization of polarization fatigue in epitaxial ferroelectric oxide devices. Ferroelectric oxides, such as Pb(Zr,Ti)O(3), are useful for electronic and photonic devices because of their ability to retain two stable polarization stat... DH Do,PG Evans,ED Isaacs,... - 《Nature Mater...
The meaning of SILICON is a tetravalent nonmetallic element with atomic number 14 that occurs combined as the most abundant element next to oxygen in the earth's crust and is used especially in semiconductors, in ferrosilicon for steelmaking, and in othe
SiC-based power devices are driving a radical transformation of power electronics, thanks to a combination of excellent physical and electronic properties. Although the material has been known for a long time, its use as a semiconductor is relatively recent, in great measure due to the availability...
The development of unusual electronic properties with decreasing layer thickness is particularly important for silicon microelectronic devices, in which (001)-oriented SOI is often used. Here we show--using scanning tunnelling microscopy, electronic transport measurements, and theory--that electronic ...
Pressure-Induced Changes on The Electronic Structure and Electron Topology in the Direct FCC → SH Transformation of Silicon A maximum entropy analysis of the diffraction patterns reveals dramatic alterations in the valence electron distribution from tetrahedral covalent bonding to ...

Silicon chips play a crucial role in improving energy efficiency in electronic devices. They allow for the integration of power management circuits, which regulate and optimize power consumption based on the device's usage. Additionally, advancements in transistor design and fabrication techniques have ...
1.1Silicon power devices Efficientelectrical power generation, distribution, and management has become essential in modern society. These functions were first served by the development of bipolarsiliconpower devices to displace vacuum tubes in the 1950s. The ratings of siliconbipolar transistorsandthyristors...
A method for making an electronic device includes positioning first and second members so that opposing surfaces thereof are in contact with one another, the first member comprising silicon and the second member comprising a low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) material. The method further ...
To avoid the otherwise excessive damping and loss of symmetry such devices typically need to be implemented over a low-index substrate, which hampers their integration in many practical applications. In this paper we propose a new photonic structure consisting of silicon-on-silicon spheroidal-like ...
