“Research progress on p-type amorphous semiconductors has been notably sluggish,” according to the Pohang University of Science and Technology (PosTech). “Despite the widespread adoption of n-type amorphous oxide semiconductors, particularly those based on IGZO [indium gallium zinc oxide] in OLED displays and memory devices, the advancement of p-type oxide materials has been impeded by numerous […]
The automotive sector is expected to expand at an annual rate of 9%, from its 2023 value of $8.2 billion, it is forecasted to reach $13.5 billion by 2029. The industrial sector, worth $6 billion in 2023, is projected to experience 2% CAGR to reach $6.8 billion by 2029. The defence, security and aerospace sector […]
A fibrous adsorbent selectively retrieves high-purity gold from waste, reducing costs, and time, and enabling mass production and repeated recycling. Korea relies heavily on imported metal resources, leading to a shift towards circular resources due to resource depletion and rising raw material prices. SK hynix and Samsung Electronics are actively working to increase metal recovery […]
