Thin films 'dance' with substrates that are no longer inert, opening path toward 3D chips
Many of today's electronic devices - from the semiconductors in your cell phone to the photovoltaic cells in your solar panels - are built on thin-film substrates. The thin film is an electrically conductive material, while the substrate is an inert material. Or is it?
The science section covers breakthroughs in medicine, physics, biology, and technology. We surface discoveries that expand what humanity can do, from new treatments reaching clinical trials to engineering feats that seemed impossible a decade ago. Every link goes to the original publisher so you can read the full study or press release yourself.
