  • Runaway battery improves safety
    Overheating batteries are a serious risk, in the worst cases leading to fires and explosion. A team has now developed a simple, cost-effective method to test the safety of lithium-ion batteries, which opens up opportunities for research into new and safer batteries for the future. The researchers created an intentionally unstable battery which is more […]
  • Smartphone photo sensors transformed into an unprecedented resolution antimatter camera
    Scientists have repurposed smartphone camera sensors to create a detector capable of tracking antiproton annihilations in real time with unprecedented resolution. This new device can pinpoint antiproton annihilations with a resolution of about 0.6 micrometers, a 35-fold improvement over previous real-time methods.
  • Physicists discover a copper-free high-temperature superconducting oxide
    Engineers have designed and synthesized a groundbreaking new material -- a copper-free superconducting oxide -- capable of superconducting at approximately 40 Kelvin, or about minus 233 degrees Celsius, under ambient pressure.
  • A lighter, smarter magnetoreceptive electronic skin
    Imagine navigating a virtual reality with contact lenses or operating your smartphone under water: This and more could soon be a reality thanks to innovative e-skins. A research team has developed an electronic skin that detects and precisely tracks magnetic fields with a single global sensor. This artificial skin is not only light, transparent and […]
  • E-scooter crashes mainly caused by reckless driving
    Crashes on electric scooters are mostly due to the behavior of the riders, with one-handed steering and riding in a group being some of the largest risk factors. The researchers are also concerned about riders who deliberately crash or cause dangerous situations when riding, a phenomenon that seems to be specific to electric scooters.
  • These electronics-free robots can walk right off the 3D-printer
    This a robot can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material.

The Physics and Technology of Intrinsic Semiconductors

Semiconductors are materials with electrical properties between metals and insulators, governed by their band structure. The valence and conduction bands define electron movement, with a band gap influencing conductivity. Intrinsic semiconductors, free of impurities, require energy to excite electrons into the conduction band, enabling current flow. Carriers, including electrons and ...
