Chemists measure copper levels in zinc oxide nanowires Chemists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have been the first to measure significant amounts of copper incorporated into zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires during fabrication. view more (2008-02-20)
Research highlights potential for improved solar cells A team of Los Alamos researchers led by Victor Klimov has shown that carrier multiplication-when a photon creates multiple electrons-is a real phenomenon in tiny semiconductor crystals and not a false observation born of extraneous effects that mimic carrier multiplication. The research, explained in a recent issue of Accounts of Chemical... view more... (2009-02-11)
