NIST and Collaborators Demonstrate Nondestructive Approach for Detecting Cracks in Ceramic Capacitors

Medical implants and spacecraft can suddenly go dead, often for the same reason: cracks in ceramic capacitors, devices that store electric charge in electronic circuits. These cracks, at first harmless and often hidden, can start conducting electricity, depleting batteries or shorting out the electronics.

Kwansei Gakuin University in Hyogo, Japan, Uses Raman Microscopy to Study Crystallographic Defects in Silicon Carbide Wafers

Crystallographic defects in 4H-SiC epitaxial wafers, such as dislocations and stacking faults, limit the commercialisation of SiC devices and must therefore be eliminated or reduced to levels lower than some critical density.

Transition-Metal Carbides Could Create Tougher Ductile Ceramics for Use in Spacecraft Technology

Materials scientists from the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science have discovered new methods to produce highly strong ceramics with properties such as outstanding hardness, capacity to resist very high temperatures and better corrosion resistance than metals, and still possess the ability to be ductile i.e. deform or dent without fracturing - basically, a ceramic that can bend but not break.

The Current State of the Global Semiconductor Market

The global semiconductor market has entered an exciting period. Demand for chip technology is both driving the industry as well as hindering it, with current chip shortages predicted to last for some time. Current trends will likely shape the future of the industry, which is set to continue to show

How are Graphene Batteries Made?

The primary distinction between graphene-based batteries and solid-state batteries lies in the composition of either electrode. Although the cathode is commonly changed, carbon allotropes can also be employed in fabricating anodes.

What Role Will The IoT Play In The Electric Vehicle Industry?

In recent years, the IoT is rapidly being introduced into almost all sectors, but it has particular importance in the EV industry.
