13.56Mhz 2L,5L and 10L plasma surface treatment for education research

Nanotubes Show Their True Colours

Why do some thin films of single-wall carbon nanotubes take on colourful hues even though as-synthesized films are usually black? A team of researchers in Finland, the US and China has now come up with a possible answer in a development that could prove useful for future display screens and solar cells.

Twisted Trilayer Graphene could Help Make High-temperature Superconductors

Two’s company, but three’s a crowd – unless you’re trying to make graphene superconduct at higher temperatures.

Thin-film Perovskite Detectors could Enable Extremely Low-dose Medical Imaging

Solid-state radiation detectors use crystalline semiconductors, such as silicon or germanium, to directly convert X-ray photons into electrical current. Such devices outperform other detection technologies in terms of both sensitivity and detection limit.

Silicon-based Material with a Direct Band Gap is the 2020 Breakthrough of the Year

The 2020 Breakthrough of the Year goes to Elham Fadaly, Alain Dijkstra and Erik Bakkers at Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands
