Scientists at Bourns College of Engineering of the University of California, Riverside (UC Riverside) have created a new material for lithium-ion batteries that contains sponge-like silicon nanofibers. This paper-like material is over 100X thinner than human hair and could significantly improve the specific energy or the quantity of energy that can be supplied per unit weight of the battery. This latest breakthrough holds promising applications in batteries for personal electronics and electric cars.
CyberOptics® Corporation, a leading global developer and manufacturer of high-precision 3D sensing technology solutions, announces that it will demonstratethe new SQ3000™ 3D Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) system in Booth #3332 at the IPC APEX EXPO, Feb. 24-26, 2015 at the San Diego Convention Center in California.
Scientists belonging to the Forschungszentrum Jülich and the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland have collaborated with global partners to build a germanium-tin (GeSn) semiconductor laser for applications in silicon chips. This semiconductor is made up only of main group IV elements, and hence the GeSn laser can be applied onto silicon chips directly. A new method for data transmission using light on computer chips is offered by this semiconductor. The speed of data transfer is faster and requires only a fraction of the energy that is required when compared to data transmission through copper wires.
NuFlare Technology, the market leader in electron-beam mask writers and SUSS MicroTec, a global supplier of equipment and process solutions for the semiconductor industry and related markets, announced today a cooperation to combine their expertise in Photomask Equipment and process solutions. NuFlare Technology will install a SUSS MicroTec MaskTrackPro bake and develop system into their main manufacturing fab, in Yokohama, Japan, in early 2015.
At North America’s leading photonics industry fair – the SPIE Photonics West – from February 10 to 12, 2015 in San Francisco, Jenoptik will be presenting product highlights of its Optical Systems and Lasers & Material Processing divisions. Furthermore, Jenoptik will again support young entrepreneurs in the SPIE Startup challenge.
Organic semiconductors can be easily printed using solution, making them as an inexpensive, scalable substitute to silicon-based devices. They are employed in photovoltaic cells, field effect transistors, and LEDs.
STATS ChipPAC Ltd., a leading provider of advanced semiconductor packaging and test services, today announced its plan to relocate the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, STATS ChipPAC Shanghai, Co., Ltd. to a new manufacturing site in China.
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Semiconductor Market Outlook 2020" report to their offering.
The international technology group SCHOTT offers a wide variety of specialty glass products for use in touch displays. From cover glasses for large format professional displays in public places to protective glasses for smartphones, tablets and ultrabooks and even control panels and displays in automobiles, the company offers many different solutions.
Researchers from North Carolina State University have been working on novel techniques to apply industrial semiconductor processes to substrates, such as fabrics and textiles, to “weave together” multifunctional materials.
