Slag refining of silicon has been modified in recent years by combining the process with
solvent refining, in which an alloy of silicon is first treated by slag and then solidified under …

The limited choice of metallic alloys suitable for additive manufacturing restricts the
possibilities for new design strategies and improved materials performance in demanding …

A superalloy is a high-performance alloy used for achieving stability and strength at elevated
temperatures. Generally, a temperature of about 800° C is developed at the first stage of the …

Monolithic integration of wurtzite III-nitrides with nonpolar silicon (Si), the two most-produced
semiconductor materials, is essential and critical for a broad range of applications in …

Behavior models of bismuth (Bi) and lead (Pb) impurities in the residue and distillate during
the vacuum distillation purification of antimony (Sb) metal were established from the …

Doped silicon quantum dots (SiQDs) with defined size, dopant distribution, and surface
chemistry are highly sought after as a scientific curiosity because their unique properties …

Harnessing the oxidation–reduction reaction between aluminum and water is an attractive
option for hydrogen generation and storage. Using liquid metals as a method of …

The incorporation of Si into vapor–liquid–solid GaAs nanowires often leads to p-type doping,
whereas it is routinely used as an n-dopant of planar layers. This property limits the …

The relentless scaling of semiconductor devices pushes the doping level far above the
equilibrium solubility, yet the doped material must be sufficiently stable for subsequent …

The atomic structure and configuration of Si 0.65 Ge 0.35 B x (x= 0, 0.01, 0.05, 0.10)
powders prepared by long-time mechanical alloying are analyzed by X-ray total scattering …
