IMEC to Expand Research on Sub-32nm CMOS, High-Efficiency Solar Cells and Biomedical Electronics

IMEC, the Belgian nanoelectronics
research institute, has announced that it has begun expanding its Leuven campus
facilities, starting with 2,800 square-meters of research labs and including
the extension of its state-of-the-art clean room. With this extension, IMEC
will expand its research on sub-32nm CMOS, low-cost and high-efficiency solar
cells, and biomedical electronics.

The Current State of the Global Semiconductor Market

The global semiconductor market has entered an exciting period. Demand for chip technology is both driving the industry as well as hindering it, with current chip shortages predicted to last for some time. Current trends will likely shape the future of the industry, which is set to continue to show

How are Graphene Batteries Made?

The primary distinction between graphene-based batteries and solid-state batteries lies in the composition of either electrode. Although the cathode is commonly changed, carbon allotropes can also be employed in fabricating anodes.

What Role Will The IoT Play In The Electric Vehicle Industry?

In recent years, the IoT is rapidly being introduced into almost all sectors, but it has particular importance in the EV industry.
