U.S. Is Keystone of the World’s Science and Engineering Ecosystem
In ecological science, a keystone species is essential to the entire ecosystem. Weaken or remove a keystone and it impacts everything else. The National Science Board’s The State of U.S. Science and Engineering 2022 published today, shows that for the world’s science and engineering (S&E) ecosystem, the U.S. is such a keystone.
Advanced Energy’s 2022 Scholarship Program Strives to Promote Diversity in STEM
Advanced Energy today announced the launch of this year’s Advanced Energy STEM Diversity Scholarship Program.
Kurita Accelerates Overseas Promotion of Functional Materials for High Purity Ultrapure Water Production
Kurita Water Industries Ltd. announced that the KR-FM resin, a functional material for high purity ultrapure water production designed for yield improvement and stable operation of cutting-edge semiconductor manufacturing, has recently been adopted in North America.
Groundbreaking Research Produces Record Levels of Strain in Single-Crystal Silicon
University of Surrey researchers have developed a single-step procedure to put single-crystal silicon under more strain than has been achieved before. The discovery, which has a patent pending, could be crucial to the future development of silicon photonics, which underpins the technologies behind the internet-of-things, and is currently constrained by the lack of cheap, efficient, and easily integrated optical emitters.
