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 ...

Global investors have largely brushed off the warnings from the PBoC and continued to hold Chinese government bonds as an ...

Scientists have coaxed life to do something it has never done before: bond silicon to carbon. You're probably already familiar with a few products products that use carbon-silicon, or ...

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 ...

imec comments, “the lack of highly scalable, native CMOS-integrated light sources has been a major roadblock for the widespread adoption of silicon photonics. Hybrid or heterogeneous integration ...

A solar cell is made of two types of semiconductors, called p-type and n-type silicon. The p-type silicon is produced by adding atoms—such as boron or gallium—that have one less electron in their ...
