Researchers grew a thin film of one of the oldest known superconductors on top of a semiconductor, and for the first time measured the electronic properties of the junction between the two materials, paving the way for hybrid superconductor-semiconductor quantum devices.

A crystal structure that combines a semiconductor and superconductor is a tantalizing prospect to create energy-efficient computers, or quantum

Electric Vehicles to Drive Demand for Thermal Interface Materials Says IDTechEx News provided by Share this article Share this article BOSTON, May 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Thermal interface materials (TIMs) are a key component in a multitude of electronic and energy storage devices. Essentially, if heat is generated and needs to be transferred (e.g. to a heat sink) then a TIM is typically needed. The form and composition of TIMs vary greatly across applications and markets with most large mater...
