To put this achievement into perspective, PoX can perform 25 billion operations per second – surpassing the previous world ...

Techniques for Band Gap Engineering vary, including doping, the introduction of impurities into a semiconductor to alter its electrical properties; strain engineering, where stress is applied to ...

Unlike graphene, they have a direct band gap, meaning that their valance bands (the outermost electron shells of atoms) are directly aligned with the conduction band (the electron shell adjacent ...

It is predicted to be a semiconductor with a band gap appropriate for electronic devices ... and ultimate strength comparable to that of graphene. Applications of graphyne in carbon electronics ...
