On-chip microcapacitors Scientists from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and University of California Berkeley developed microcapacitors with ultrahigh energy and power density that could be used for on-chip energy storage. The microcapacitors were made with thin films of hafnium oxide (HfO2) and zirconium oxide (ZrO2) engineered to achieve a negative capacitance effect, which increase... » read more

Ferroelectric nanosheets Engineers from the University of Sydney, RMIT University, University of New South Wales, and University of Technology Sydney created a liquid metal alloy of tin, zirconium, and hafnium. The alloy has a thin oxide layer crust that enables it to be used to harvest ultra-thin tin oxide nanosheets doped with hafnium zirconium oxide, which could then be 2D printed on a subs... » read more
