NPL research shows there could be no end in sight for Moore's Law
The fast pace of growing computing power could be sustained for many years to come thanks to new research from the UK's National Physical Laboratory (NPL) that is applying advanced techniques to magnetic semiconductors. view more (2008-12-09)
Finnish SPIN researchers at forefront of development: Spintronics can bring electronics down to size
Researchers working on the room temperature spintronics (SPIN) research project are the first in Europe to successfully produce GaMnN layers, which are ferromagnetic at room temperature. The layer properties were examined using electric, optic, x-ray and positron measurements. The Academy-funded SPIN project is comprised of four participating... view more... (2005-03-17)
Soap, DNA and semiconductors
How can studying soap lead to better methods for transporting drugs around the body? Where’s the link between semiconductors and DNA and how can statistical physics reveal how ecosystems evolve? Find out at the Institute of Physics Condensed Matter and Materials Physics (CMMP) Conference being held at the University of Bristol between 18 and... view more... (2000-12-13)
Device controls electron spin at room temperature
In a breakthrough for applied physics, North Carolina State University researchers have developed a magnetic semiconductor memory device, using GaMnN thin films, which utilizes both the charge and spin of electrons at room temperature. view more (2009-04-07)
Plenty of nothing: A hole new quantum spin
Electronic devices are always shrinking in size but it's hard to imagine anything beating what researchers at the University of New South Wales have created: a tiny wire that doesn't even use electrons to carry a current. view more (2006-07-26)
Scientists build 'magnetic semiconductors' one atom at a time
In a stride that could hasten the development of computer chips that both calculate and store data, a team of Princeton scientists has turned semiconductors into magnets by the precise placement of metal atoms within a material from which chips are made. view more (2006-07-28)
Laser trapping of erbium may lead to novel devices
Physicists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have used lasers to cool and trap erbium atoms, a "rare earth" heavy metal with unusual optical, electronic and magnetic properties. view more (2006-05-01)
The Lightness of Electrons in a Twisting Metal Crystal
A team of researchers at Princeton University's Materials Research Science and Engineering Center has observed electrons moving through a crystal of bismuth metal behaving like light. view more (2008-07-28)
Scientists Image 'Magnetic Semiconductors' On The Nanoscale
In a first-of-its-kind achievement, scientists at the University of Iowa, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Princeton University have directly imaged the magnetic interactions between two magnetic atoms less than one nanometer apart (one billionth of a meter) and embedded in a semiconductor chip. view more (2006-07-27)
Joint efforts in R&D of SiC RF transistors
Philips Semiconductors in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, and Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden, have announced that they are joining efforts in R&D of SiC RF transistors. As a part of the agreement, Philips is sharing its SiC expertise and transfering dedicated processing equipment to Chalmers. The joint Philips-Chalmers... view more... (2001-11-21)
Argonne scientists pinpoint mechanism to increase magnetic response of ferromagnetic semiconductor
When squeezed, electrons increase their ability to move around. In compounds such as semiconductors and electrical insulators, such squeezing can dramatically change the electrical- and magnetic- properties. view more (2009-02-26)
Neutron researchers discover widely sought property in magnetic semiconductor
Researchers working at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have demonstrated for the first time the existence of a key magnetic-as opposed to electronic-property of specially built semiconductor devices. view more (2008-11-26)
Scientists put the squeeze on electron spins
University of California scientists working at Los Alamos National Laboratory have developed a novel method for controlling and measuring electron spins in semiconductor crystals of GaAs (gallium arsenide). view more (2005-06-16)
UA Physicists Discover 'Super Crystals' in a Semiconductor
University of Arizona physicists have discovered that "super crystals" -- crystals which are hundreds to thousands times larger than conventional crystals -- exist in certain organic semiconducting solids. view more (2007-08-17)
Using a magnet to tune a magnet
An international research team, led by scientists at the London Centre for Nanotechnology (LCN), has found a way to switch a material's magnetic properties from 'hard' to 'soft' and back again -- something which could lead to new ways of controlling electromagnetic devices. view more (2007-08-02)
Bottoms up: Better organic semiconductors for printable electronics
Researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and Seoul National University (SNU) have learned how to tweak a new class of polymer-based semiconductors to better control the location and alignment of the components of the blend. view more (2008-09-05)
Nanoparticle technique could lead to improved semiconductors
Devices made from plastic semiconductors, like solar cells and light-emitting diodes (LEDs), could be improved based on information gained using a new nanoparticle technique developed at The University of Texas at Austin. view more (2007-08-07)
Organic electronics a two-way street, thanks to new plastic semiconductor
Plastic that conducts electricity holds promise for cheaper, thinner and more flexible electronics. This technology is already available in some gadgets -- the new Sony walkman that was introduced earlier this summer and the Microsoft Zune HD music player released last week both incorporate organic light-emitting electronic displays. view more (2009-08-18)
UAB Scientists break the hard drive miniaturisation limit
Magnetic memory-based information storage systems are getting smaller and smaller, while their capacities are getting larger. However, there is a limit to how small they can get. If the tiny magnets used to store information are smaller than around five nanometres (millionths of a millimetre), vibrations caused by temperature can erase their... view more... (2003-07-10)
Magnetic nanoparticles navigate therapeutic genes through the body
Health professionals send genes and healthy cells on their way through the bloodstream so that they can, for example, repair tissue damage to arteries. view more (2009-03-05)
