2020 IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM) Announces Virtual Events Schedule & Technical Highlights
The 66th annual edition of the IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM), the world’s premier forum for the presentation of applied research in transistors and related devices, has announced the details of its virtual schedule.
Large-Area Flexible Organic Photodiodes Can Compete With Silicon Devices
The performance of flexible large-area organic photodiodes has advanced to the point that they can now offer advantages over conventional silicon photodiode technology, particularly for applications such as biomedical imaging and biometric monitoring that require detecting low levels of light across large areas.
Former NVIDIA Vice President Alex Lo joins Kneron as Chief Strategy Officer
Kneron, a on-device edge artificial intelligence (AI) solutions-provider based in San Diego, is today announcing it has hired Alex Lo as Chief Strategy Officer (CSO). Lo, a former Corporate Vice President of Sales at NVIDIA in Taiwan, will be responsible for driving Kneron’s objective of enabling AI for everyone.
Q3 Global Semiconductor Sales Increase 11 Percent Compared to Q2
The Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) today announced worldwide sales of semiconductors totaled $113.6 billion during the third quarter of 2020, an increase of 11.0 percent over the previous quarter and 5.8 percent more than the third quarter of 2019.
Breakthrough Quantum-Dot Transistors Create a Flexible Alternative to Conventional Electronics
Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory and their collaborators from the University of California, Irvine have created fundamental electronic building blocks out of tiny structures known as quantum dots and used them to assemble functional logic circuits.
A Flexible Color-Changing Film Inspired by Chameleon Skin
Chameleons can famously change their colors to camouflage themselves, communicate and regulate their temperature. Scientists have tried to replicate these color-changing properties for stealth technologies, anti-counterfeiting measures and electronic displays, but the materials have limitations. Now, researchers have developed a flexible film that changes color in response to stretching, pressure or humidity.
OPD Optical Sensors That Reproduce Any Color
Photodiodes are optical sensors that convert the energy of light into electrical energy. Organic photodiodes (OPDs) respond quickly and have the advantage of being able to realize colors free from color filters because they can control the spectral response of wavelengths.
Veeco Announces Aledia Order of 300mm MOCVD Equipment for microLED Displays
Veeco Instruments Inc. (NASDAQ: VECO) today announced that Aledia, a developer and manufacturer of next-generation advanced display applications, has selected Veeco’s Propel 300 HVM metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) system for high- resolution microLED displays.
HKU Engineering Team Develops Novel Miniaturised Organic Semiconductor
Field Effect Transistors (FET) are the core building blocks of modern electronics such as integrated circuits, computer CPUs and display backplanes. Organic Field Effect Transistors (OFETs), which use organic semiconductor as a channel for current flows, have the advantage of being flexible when compared with their inorganic counterparts like silicon.
