Ken Wade recalls his own undistinguished part in the space race, and notes how carboranes revitalized boron hydride chemistry and modified our ideas of chemical bonding. In the 1950s, during the ...

Because boron has one less electron than is required to form the bonds with the surrounding silicon atoms, an electron vacancy or “hole” is created. The n-type silicon is made by including atoms that ...

What if your electronic devices could adapt on the fly to temperature, pressure, or impact? Thanks to a new breakthrough in ...
