In the field of silicon solar cells, the search for more efficient and cost-effective technologies never ceases. One of the most exciting developments of the past decade has been the rise of so-called passivating contacts, with the current industry leader
Surface passivation as a cornerstone of modern semiconductor technology – Highlighting a comprehensive review paper on surface passivation for silicon, germanium, and III–V materials
What do transistors, solar cells, microLEDs, and thin-film transistors have in common? At first glance, the answer might seem straightforward: they all rely on semiconductor materials such as silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), gallium arsenide (GaAs), indium phosphide (InP), and gallium
Introducing the new AtomicLimits ReviewBase – New features, new design and more to come!
We are very excited to announce the release of the totally renewed ReviewBase, which you can find in the menu above. We launched the original ReviewBase in 2022 as an easy-to-access overview of ALD, ALE and ASD review papers and
A review on Atomic Layer Deposition of (semi)conductive oxides – The role of ALD in these emerging materials and their applications
Quick link to open access paper: Applied Physics Reviews 9, 041313 (2022) Earlier this month I published my review paper entitled Atomic layer deposition of conductive and semiconductive oxides. It was an invited review for Applied Physics Reviews and I was
Looking back at the Spatial ALD day -with photos and downloadable presentations!
At the start of summer we hosted the first Spatial ALD day at the Eindhoven University of Technology. In this blogpost, I want to look back at this day with a few highlights. Also, you can find photos and downloadable
Spatial ALD day – June 9th, register here!
On June 9th 2022, we will organize a spatial ALD day at the Eindhoven University of Technology. This full-day on-site (not online!) event will cover various aspects of spatial ALD, including presentations by spatial ALD companies in the Netherlands, as
Launch of the ALD & ALE ReviewBase – An easy-to-access overview of all ALD and ALE review papers
The scientific and technological interest in atomic layer deposition (ALD) and atomic layer etching (ALE) has been surging in the last decade and the sheer volume of ALD and ALE papers can make it difficult to get a clear overview
Diving into the Fundamentals of Spatial Atomic Layer Deposition – Strengthening the S-ALD hub in Brainport region Eindhoven
On May 1st, we kicked off our new research project entitled “Spatial Atomic Layer Deposition – More Materials, More Demanding Applications” , granted by the NWO Domain Applied and Engineering Sciences. As the title suggests, the project is geared at
