They have found that as this film gets thinner, its conductivity increases, which is the opposite of how copper behaves. They started with a sapphire substrate and then applied a seed layer of niobium ...

Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) researchers have discovered a fast, simple, and cheap way to make ...

A new technology has been developed that enables the manufacturing of thin films, which typically require complex processes, ...

Scalable method rapidly creates stable, flexible carbon nanoparticle films using only water and oil, enabling precise, ...

When materials are created on a nanometer scale—just a handful of atoms thick—even the thermal energy present at room ...

Dendritic structures that emerge during the growth of thin films are a major obstacle in large-area fabrication, a key step towards commercialization. However, current methods of studying dendrites ...
