Memory Market Not Forecast to Exceed 2018 High of $163.3B until 2022
The most current 2017-2024 forecast for 35 major IC product segments (e.g., DRAM, 16-bit MCUs, power management analog devices, etc.) by market, unit shipments, and ASP was presented in the April Update to the 2020 edition of The McClean Report—A Complete Analysis and Forecast of the Integrated Circuit Industry (MR20).
2D Oxide Flakes Pick Up Surprise Electrical Properties
Rice University researchers have found evidence of piezoelectricity in lab-grown, two-dimensional flakes of molybdenum dioxide. Their investigation showed the surprise electrical properties are due to electrons trapped in defects throughout the material, which is less than 10 nanometers thick.
HiSilicon First China-Based Semi Supplier to be Ranked in Top-10
Top-10 semiconductor suppliers log strong 16% jump in 1Q20/1Q19 sales.
SONOTEC Develops and Globally Distributes New Clamp-On Flow Meter for Highly Pure Semiconductor Applications
As the semiconductor industry is characterized by a number of liquid flow processes in which different abrasive, adherent, corrosive and ultra-pure liquids are applied, it is of utmost importance to keep these processes safe, stable, and of high quality. SEMIFLOW flow meters are specifically designed to meet the sector-specific demand of the semiconductor industry. The sensors are now available globally throughout the SONOTEC distribution network.
Pure Red LEDs Fulfill a Primary Goal
Making pure red LEDs from nitride crystals is a goal that has so far frustrated engineers. However, these LEDs are vital for building the next generation of energy-efficient micro-LED displays to follow OLED displays and for creating lighting with color tuning. Now, for the first time, a team of electrical engineers at KAUST has succeeded in making these LEDs.
Shedding New Light on Nanolasers using 2D Semiconductors
In his latest line of research, Cun-Zheng Ning, a professor of electrical engineering in the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering at Arizona State University, and his peers explored the intricate balance of physics that governs how electrons, holes, excitons and trions coexist and mutually convert into each other to produce optical gain. Their results, led by Tsinghua University Associate Professor Hao Sun, were recently published in the Nature publication Light: Science & Applications.
