A consortium of Russian scientists has developed an innovative method that enhances photoluminescence in silicon, potentially advancing microelectronics.<\/h2>\n
The research, conducted by researchers from Skoltech, the RAS Institute for Physics of Microstructures, Lobachevsky State University of Nizhny Novgorod, ITMO University, Lomonosov Moscow State University, and A.M. Prokhorov General Physics Institute, has devised a novel strategy that boosts the capacity of silicon \u2013 an infamously poor emitter and absorber of photons.<\/p>\n
As the majority of modern electronics contain silicon, this improvement could revolutionise the next generation of microelectronics through the enhancement of photogenic integrated circuits.<\/p>\n
