Global investors have largely brushed off the warnings from the PBoC and continued to hold Chinese government bonds as an investment, believing that their prices will rise more, sending yields further ...

silicones (which feature silicon–oxygen and silicon–carbon bonds) have found extensive applications as greases, resins, rubbers and sealants; silica, in the form of sand, is also a basic ...

Coordination compounds are formed when a central atom, typically a metal or metalloid like silicon, bonds with surrounding molecules or ions, known as ligands. The unique properties of silicon ...

A silicon atom has four electrons in its outer shell and bonds tightly with four surrounding silicon atoms creating a crystal matrix with eight electrons in the outer shells. However, phosphorus ...

Silicon is the backbone of the semiconductor industry, but it's also interesting in its own right. Here's why it's so important in modern computing—and in many other applications.

Their work shows that the fluorine selectively cleaves silicon bonds in a way that ensures an optimal structure for light capture. This discovery will help lay down a platform for refining black ...

Imec, a research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, has announced a significant milestone in silicon photonics with the successful demonstration of electrically driven ...
