Research Bits: June 13


Converting heat to electricity Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and University of Colorado Boulder fabricated a device to boost the conversion of heat into electricity. The technique involves depositing hundreds of thousands of microscopic columns of gallium nitride atop a silicon wafer. Layers of silicon are then removed from the underside of the waf... » read more

Improving memristors Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) have demonstrated a reliable Interface-type (IT) memristive device (memristor) that shows promise as a technique for building artificial synapses in neuromorphic computing. The team made its memristor — a component that which combines memory and programming functions — using a simple Au/Nb-doped SrTiO3 (Nb:STO) Sc... » read more

Improving qubits Researchers from QuTech say they have improved the ‘Andreev spin qubit’ by taking the two most promising qubits — the spin qubits in semiconductors and transmon qubits in superconducting circuits — and finding a hybrid way that uses the best of both qubit types. “Spin qubits are small and compatible with current industrial technology, but they struggle with interact... » read more

DNA-based molecular computing Researchers at the University of Minnesota proposed a new method of biocomputing. Trumpet, or Transcriptional RNA Universal Multi-Purpose GatE PlaTform, uses biological enzymes as catalysts for DNA-based molecular computing. Researchers performed logic gate operations in test tubes using DNA molecules. A positive gate connection resulted in a phosphorescent glo... » read more

New technical papers recently added to Semiconductor Engineering’s library: [table id=104 /] If you have research papers you are trying to promote, we will review them to see if they are a good fit for our global audience. At a minimum, papers need to be well researched and documented, relevant to the semiconductor ecosystem, and free of marketing bias. There is no cost involved for us... » read more

Germanium-tin transistor Scientists at Forschungszentrum Jülich, CEA-Leti, University of Leeds, Leibniz Institute for High Performance Microelectronics, and RWTH Aachen University fabricated a new type of transistor from a germanium-tin alloy. Charge carriers can move faster in the material than in silicon or germanium, which enables lower voltages in operation. “The germanium–tin syst... » read more
