Oxides contain at least one oxygen atom, and silicon oxide may refer to silicon dioxide (SiO 2) or silicon monoxide (SiO). Silicon dioxide is a hard, glassy mineral found in materials such as rock, ...

Doing anything that requires measurements in nanometers is pretty difficult, and seems like it would require some pretty sophisticated equipment. But when the task at hand is growing oxide layers on ...

For such a critical material, silicon oxide is not especially well understood. The semiconductor industry certainly understands how to grow high quality oxides with high breakdown voltages, but what ...

Chicago-headquartered NanoGraf Technologies, which claims it has enabled the world’s most energy dense 18650 lithium-ion cell, today announced that it will open the first large-volume silicon oxide ...

An artist’s representation of a hole etched into alternating layers of silicon oxide and silicon nitride using plasma, to make 3D NAND flash memory. Researchers want to refine how they make these ...

The US military has approved funding for NanoGraf’s silicon oxide-graphene (SOG) batteries, which provide versatility for applications such as phones, backup storage, and electric vehicles (EVs).

Just after sunrise on a cloudless morning last June, two propellers started spinning on a slender aircraft sitting on a runway in the New Mexico desert. Chocks securing bicycle-sized wheels were ...

Researchers from POSTECH and Sogang University developed a functional polymeric binder for stable, high-capacity anode material that could increase the current EV range at least 10-fold over current ...

Start-ups hoping to commercialize silicon materials for battery anodes raised nearly half a billion dollars in the final quarter of 2022. The money is intended to help them build factories and ...

Developed core technology that will allow practical implementation of high-density, low-power 3D DRAM, presented at IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM) ...
