Transparent semiconductor material could make electronics faster


Researchers at the University of Minnesota have made a groundbreaking transparent semiconductor material that could revolutionize electronics.

Ultra-wideband gap semiconductors support high performance at elevated temperatures, making them vital for creating more durable and robust electronic devices. In their paper published in Science Advances, the researchers focused on developing a new class of materials with an increased “band gap,” which improves both transparency and conductivity. This research represents a significant advancement in developing more efficient materials for current electronic applications and provides new opportunities for future technologies requiring both transparency and high electrical conductivity.
