Sentences with phrase «silicon nanowires»
"Silicon nanowires" refers to extremely thin and tiny threads made of silicon, a common material used in technology. These wires are so small that they are only a few nanometers thick. They are used in various applications such as electronics and solar cells to improve efficiency and performance. Full definition
In principle, the team could grow silicon nanowires in one region of a chip and then switch to grow carbon nanotubes in another spot, but so far, «they don't have a lot of control over the growth,» he says.
