A long-standing chemistry challenge has been solved with the synthesis of a five-atom silicon aromatic ring. The breakthrough validates decades of theory and points toward new industrially relevant ...

A team of MIT researchers has discovered a new silicon compound that—get this—melts as it gets cooler, some 500 degrees Celsius lower than silicon’s natural melting point. The researchers think it ...

Carbon's unique chemical properties allow it to be an essential building block for life on Earth and many other molecules we rely on for day-to-day life—but what about carbon's neighbor? Silicon is ...

PETERBOROUGH, N.H. — A broad-based research effort to integrate compound semiconductor devices with silicon circuits is under way, according to papers to be presented at the International Electron ...

The global silicone potting compounds market is expected to grow primarily due to the increasing applications in electronic devices. The UV curing sub-segment is expected to flourish immensely. The ...

Scientists have genetically engineered bacteria to make a protein that squishes silicon and carbon together long enough for them to stick to one another — forming a bond that, until now, only chemists ...

The global silicone potting compounds market size was US$ 987.2 million in 2021. The global silicone potting compounds market is forecast to grow to US$ 1366.1 million by 2030 by growing at a compound ...
