P-type dye-sensitised solar cells (p-DSSCs) represent a promising class of photovoltaic devices that utilise p-type semiconductors – most commonly nickel oxide – as the photoactive electrode. These ...

Successful development of high-performance amorphous P-type oxide semiconductor using tellurium-selenium composite oxide. Professor Yong-Young Noh from the Department of Chemical Engineering at Pohang ...

A group of Korean researchers have recently succeeded in developing new p-type semiconductor materials and thin-film transistors that will lead the innovation of the semiconductor industry. These new ...

ZnSc 2 S 4 exhibits a direct bandgap and can emit light from orange to blue. Its composition can be chemically tuned to switch between n-type and p-type conduction over nine orders of magnitude, ...

Forming a low-resistivity ohmic contact on p -type SiC is far from easy – it requires an electrode metal with a work function larger than that of p -type SiC. As that condition is rarely met, when ...

A recent article in Nature Communications introduced a method for precise p- and n-type substitutional doping of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors. This method was applied for the one-step growth of ...

A semiconductor is a material or device that only conducts electricity under certain conditions. Some elements in the periodic table, such as carbon, silicon, and germanium, are intrinsic ...

A spinel-type sulfide semiconductor that can emit light from violet to orange at room temperature has been developed by researchers at Science Tokyo, overcoming the efficiency limitations of current ...
