Semiconductor device

achieving economies of scale. For instance Samsung has realized economies of scale in semiconductor production and has extended its production lines to china and other countries which results in the reduction of cost due to mass production. 5. Economies of scope - Samsung produces various electronics products such as LCD panels, smartphone, smart televisions, semiconductors, digital cameras and other related electronic devices which uses similar raw materials. The manufacturing of different…

There are many convieneces to solar power, but of course nothing is perfect. It is more convienet for the consumer because they will not have to purchase things to run their house or car, they could just have the solar pannels themselves and be independent. The one and major inconveience of solar power is what do you do on a cloudy day? Or if one place does not get a lot of sun how can it run? Advantages: Solar energy is a renewable resource that is environmentally friendly. Unlike fossil…

Fiber optic communication systems are light wave systems that employ optical fibers for transmitting information from one point to other through an optical fiber. The driving force behind the widespread use of fiber optic communications is the demand for economic, reliable transmission media that can transmit required information capacity. The transmission capacity of optical fibers has drastically improved over the years. Today, optical communications up to 100 gb/s for several kilometers have…

Flexible nature and high surface-to-volume ratio makes monolayer-MoS2 a novel paradigm for tunable gas sensing devices. However, for further improvement in the performance of these devices, a new design strategy is essential to modulate the sensitivity of inert MoS2 basal plane. Here, we demonstrate from first-principles calculations that the gas adsorption properties of monolayer-MoS2 can be modulated through MoS antisite doping and strain. The antisite doped MoS defect with highly localized…

In 2012, Nokia over 100 year – old communications and technology corporation was the world’s leading mobile handsets manufacturer, a position it had held since 1998. Yet, in September 2013, Microsoft purchased Nokia`s Device and Services business for Euros 5.4 billion.
