Scientists have developed a new laser-made silicon-graphene anode that delivers lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries with ...

A single-step laser technique produces prelithiated silicon-graphene battery anodes with over 98% capacity retention after ...

Engineers at MIT have turned one of computing’s biggest headaches, waste heat, into the main act. By sculpting “dust-sized” silicon structures that steer heat as precisely as electrical current, they ...

Waste heat from hardware can cause a variety of problems and is generally considered unnecessary, but researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have reported that they have ...

An innovative method uses the intrinsic attractive force between silicon surfaces that are separated by a tiny gap to engineer structures that can confine light — offering an ideal set-up for ...

Taking next-gen battery technologies forward, a US firm has unveiled plans to produce units with a 100 percent silicon anode, replacing graphite entirely. Sionic Energy battery's performance relies on ...

The LEEMONS project is researching nanostructured silicon that uses low-energy electron multiplication (LEEM) to allow one ...

Here is why gallium nitride (GaN) is the natural successor to silicon MOSFETs in the 100–650 V class of power devices.
