The high-performance semiconductor devices powering smartphone displays, AI computing, EV batteries and more are increasingly incorporating 2D materials to overcome silicon's scaling limits. To ...

Researchers have looked at how hydrogen-induced contact resistance could help to reduce changes in series resistance, in either TOPCon or PERC solar cells. They said degradation occurs purely at the n ...

THE effects of contact resistance on temperature rise in switches are examined by R. W. J. Cockram in the Electrical Review of August 21. A factor complicating the control of electric circuits is the ...

2D transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) such as molybdenum disulphide (MoS 2) could be ideal for making next-generation optoelectronics devices. Those made from the materials so far suffer from low ...

As semiconductor chips become increasingly thinner, the components inside chips are locked in a fierce race to achieve the ultimate ultra-thin state. However, this has presented a structural ...

Download this article in PDF format. Proper wiring and probing/contacting are critical to making successful measurements. When testing cells or batteries, using good engineering practices is important ...
