Dynaxion Security has been declared bankrupt by the court in ’s-Hertogenbosch.
Not all researchers have given up on graphene for use in mainstream electronics. A new method to create a semiconducting version of the material opens up new horizons.
Circular economy and attractive workplace are among the nine strategic sustainability areas of ASML. These have received increasing attention in recent years but in some cases have already guided the company’s activities for decades. Romex, a long-standing supplier to the electronics industry, can testify to this.
The “Design principles for precision engineering” training gave Koray Ulu a better understanding of mechanical design for high-tech systems. “It helped me connect the dots, so to speak. It provided insight into the critical aspects of a design.”
Researchers from the University of Twente (UT) managed to improve the conductivity of the best-known p-type transparent conductor, copper iodide (CuI).
