Extracting hydrogen from water through electrolysis offers a promising route for increasing the production of hydrogen, a clean and environmentally friendly fuel. But one major challenge of water ...

Argonne National Labs have developed a new technique, molecular layer etching, that may help develop microelectronics and show the way beyond Moore’s Law. Molecular layer etching could enable ...

With photolithography not able to produce circuit lines much thinner than 100nm, a major focus of research into nanotechnology is in developing means to construct circuits that break the 100nm barrier ...

Dutch researcher Michiel Blauw has described the physical limitations of the plasma-etching of deep, narrow microstructures in silicon. His results have led to such an improvement in the etching ...

A team of physicists has uncovered some of the physics that make possible the etching of silicon computer chips, which power cell phones, computers, and a huge range of electronic devices. Physicist ...

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Etch Process: Materials, Chemicals and Advances" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. Report Scope: The market for etch processes is segmented into ...

ITHACA, N.Y. — Cornell University researchers have discovered yet another method for shrinking the design rules on silicon chips. The researchers demonstrated the technique, called controlled etching ...

Google “etching on photographs” and you’ll find a number of different processes; photo chemical etching, photo engraving, even good old lithography. What you won’t find is any reference to hand ...

For maximum resolution in a scanning tunneling microscope (STM), an extremely sharp metallic tip is required, which serves as the point through which the STM “scans” a sample. A blunt tip reduces STM ...
