Gallium is a metal with an extremely low melting point--about 85 degrees Fahrenheit. The shiny metal, which isn't found by itself in nature, can be melted just by placing it in your hand. But gallium ...

Graphene hogs all the headlines about two-dimensional materials, but it might just be the beginning. Researchers at Rice University and the Indian Institute of Science have now isolated a 2D form of ...

From the heart of Silicon Valley comes a new buzzword. Gallium nitride is the future of power technology. Tech blogs are touting gallium nitride as the silicon of the future, and you are savvy enough ...

Gallium is a soft silver metal - similar to aluminium - that is primarily used in electronic circuits. It is solid at room temperature but is so soft it can be cut with a knife. It melts at around ...

The creation of stunning, tiny metal snowflakes — each only as wide as a human hair is thick — could pave the way towards new sensors, better industrial processes and even advanced and smaller ...

A room-temperature bonding technique for integrating wide bandgap materials such as gallium nitride (GaN) with thermally-conducting materials such as diamond could boost the cooling effect on GaN ...

Katherine continues, “So far, there is clear evidence that regenerative farming can improve soil health (up to 70% increase ...

Artistic rendition of early stages of the Moon's formation. This material relates to a paper that appeared in the July 28, 2017, issue of Science Advances, published by AAAS. The paper, by C. Kato at ...

Vermont's Gallium-Nitride Tech Hub received $3.4 million to establish a cutting-edge microelectronics testing laboratory. The lab, slated to open in January 2026, will focus on gallium nitride (GaN) ...

China produces more than 95 per cent of the world’s raw gallium – a critical mineral for making semiconductors – but the situation may not last because of the rapid depletion of natural resources, ...

Gallium is a soft silver metal - similar to aluminium - that is primarily used in electronic circuits. It is solid at room temperature but is so soft it can be cut with a knife. It melts at around ...
