Solar water splitting using metal–insulator–semiconductor junctions has proven efficient, but these junctions degrade very rapidly. Here, the authors engineer metal–insulator–semiconductor ...

The photoelectrochemical splitting of water into hydrogen and oxygen requires a semiconductor to absorb light and generate electron–hole pairs, and a catalyst to enhance the kinetics of electron ...

2nd course in the Active Optical Devices SpecializationInstructor: Juliet Gopinath, Ph.D., ProfessorThis course dives into nanophotonic light-emitting devices and optical detectors, including metal ...

Once considered merely insulating, a change in the angle between silicon and oxygen atoms opens a pathway for electrical charge to flow. A breakthrough discovery from the University of Michigan has ...

Diamond is an electrical insulator, but maybe not always. A new study calculated that deforming diamond nano-needles would change their conductivity from an insulator to a semiconductor to a ...

A research team has successfully achieved an atomically controlled insulator-to-metal transition in iridate/manganate heterostructures. Their findings were recently published in Nature Communications.

A new state between metal and insulator A kind of ‘umbilical cord’ between different quantum states can be found in some materials. Researchers at TU Wien have now shown that this ‘umbilical ...

The same layered material can be made to behave as a superconductor, metal, semiconductor or insulator by using a transistor device developed by RIKEN physicists to tweak its electronic properties ...

Metal-to-insulator transition—a process that turns materials from a conductor to an insulator—has been a crucial process behind microelectronic switches, nonvolatile memory, and neuromorphic ...
