When a voltage is applied to a material or device,current will flow through it. How much current will flow is based on theresistance that the material applies to a circuit. The resistance of a ...

The performance of electronic and optoelectronic devices based on two-dimensional layered crystals, including graphene, semiconductors of the transition metal dichalcogenide family such as molybdenum ...

When evaluating shrinking metal linewidths in advanced semiconductor devices, bulk resistivity is not the sole materials property for deriving electrical resistance. At smaller line dimensions, local ...

Copper is not only the standard of conductivity, but also the world’s preferred conductor material. It is present in nearly all electrical contact applications, either in the material of the contacts ...

Researchers have modeled and developed new classes of materials with contact properties near those of pure gold. With the price of gold currently hovering around $1,340 per ounce, manufacturers across ...

Interpreting a data sheet for a static-control product requires a certain level of knowledge and experience. Often, you must wade through myriad specifications, test methods, and claims without fully ...

A series of new tests highlights the benefits of using an abrasive-loaded gel to clean probe tips. Production wafer-level test is used to evaluate the performance of all manufactured ICs prior to ...

Both types of material, ISA-CON®414 and ISA-CON®450, are characterized by a high strength (similar to that of stainless steel) and high conductivity (similar to that of copper). With ISA-CON®450, the ...

In the words of Sugahara: "Clearly, researchers should focus on improving the thermal and electrical contact resistance to improve power output even further." Japan's Society 5.0 initiative, aimed at ...
