Phosphorus chemist Prof. Jan J. Weigand from the Dresden University of Technology, in collaboration with an interdisciplinary team, has developed a method to introduce phosphorus and nitrogen ...

For that, he suggested transferring the spin to an electron orbiting the phosphorus atom, which would interact much more easily with an electron orbiting a nearby phosphorus atom. Two-qubit ...

Phosphorus atom doping can suppress the bulk decomposition of BP-N and stabilize BP-N to 0 GPa, achieving dynamical stability through N-P dipole interaction.

Researchers have succeeded in building a working transistor, whose active region composes only of a single phosphorus atom in silicon.

A controllable transistor engineered from a single phosphorus atom has been developed by researchers at the University of New South Wales, Purdue University and the University of Melbourne. The atom, ...

The basic unit of matter could become the basic unit of computing. A lone atom of phosphorus embedded in a sheet of silicon has been made to act as a transistor. It is not the first single-atom ...

Phosphorus has one more electron in its outer shell than silicon and if a silicon atom is replaced by a phosphorus atom (a process called n-doping), it donates a free electron to the crystal, thereby ...

“Our group has proved that it is really possible to position one phosphorus atom in a silicon environment - exactly as we need it - with near-atomic precision, and at the same time register ...

Another group in 2002 reported using single atoms of cobalt as transistors, but those atoms were contained within larger, specially designed molecules. The new approach produces a smaller transistor ...

Phosphorus is an essential ingredient in thousands of products, including herbicides, lithium-ion batteries, and even soft drinks. Most of this phosphorus comes from an energy-intensive process ...
