MIT researchers have designed silicon structures that can perform calculations in an electronic device using excess heat instead of electricity. These tiny structures could someday enable more ...

The world sits on the brink of a major ecological disaster and the need for renewable energy sources has never been more urgent. Perhaps the most significant source of untapped renewable energy is, ...

Researchers uncovered how soft regions in amorphous silicon mix order and disorder, offering new insights for designing stronger amorphous materials. Persistence diagram obtained from the structure of ...

Metamaterials—the term may sound esoteric to the layman. In science and engineering, however, this is an interesting field of ...

Authors: Shunsuke Abe, Hideo Hara, Shin Masuda, and Hirohito Yamada. This paper describes a simple fabrication process of verticaltaper structures which can locally tune the thickness of silicon ...
