In this process, using a gas that reacts exclusively with silicon halts the reaction at the surface of the oxide film, allowing precise preservation of only the thin circuit section. Finally ...

But when the task at hand is growing oxide layers on silicon chips in preparation for making your own integrated circuits, it turns out that the old Mark 1 eyeball is all you need. Alert readers ...

The narrow, deep holes required for one type of flash memory are made twice as fast with the right recipe, which includes a plasma made from hydrogen fluoride.

According to a report by The Elec, Apple is developing a new MacBook Air with an oxide thin-film transistor (TFT ... Compared to the amorphous silicon (a-Si) TFT LCD currently used in MacBook ...

Zirconium-doped indium oxide thin films (IZrO) were deposited in a 4 cm x 4 cm area. While the standard value of the thin film in commercial crystalline silicon solar cells is usually 100 nm ...
