Reducing defects on the wafer edge, bevel, and backside is becoming essential as the complexity of developing leading-edge chips continue to increase, and where a single flaw can have costly ...

TSMC (Taiwan semiconductor) has a major multi-year plan to create rectangular substrate (510 millimeters by 515 millimeters) with over triple the usable area of current round wafers. The rectangular ...

A new method enables 2D-material semiconductor transistors to be directly integrated onto a fully fabricated 8-inch silicon wafer, which could enable a new generation of transistor technology, denser ...

The production of semiconductors, also known as chips, has become a strategic priority in Europe as well as the United States, after the shock of the pandemic choked ...

Researchers devise a technique to grow high-quality 2D magnetic materials over centimetre-scale wafers, paving the way for ...

In a major advance, researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have devised a method to grow high-quality 2D ...

Researchers have grown a high-performing 2D semiconductor to a full-size, industrial-scale wafer. In addition, the semiconductor material, indium selenide (InSe), can be deposited at temperatures low ...

Forward-looking: As manufacturers search for ways to extend the life of Moore's Law, building transistors only a few atoms thick – called 2D Materials – could be a path forward. Researchers are trying ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA — Emerging AI applications, like chatbots that generate natural human language, demand denser, more powerful computer chips. But semiconductor chips are traditionally made with bulk ...
