  2. Monocrystalline whisker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monocrystalline_whisker

    A monocrystalline whisker is a filament of material that is structured as a single, defect-free crystal. Some typical whisker materials are graphite, alumina, iron, silicon carbide and silicon. Single-crystal whiskers of these (and some other) materials are known for having very high tensile strength (on the order of 10–20 GPa).

  3. Single crystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_crystal

    Monocrystalline silicon used in the fabrication of semiconductors and photovoltaics is the greatest use of single-crystal technology today. [14] In photovoltaics, the most efficient crystal structure will yield the highest light-to-electricity conversion. [15]

  4. Crystal growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_growth

    It may be instructional to note that whisker growth provides the link between the mechanical phenomenon of high strength in whiskers and the various growth mechanisms which are responsible for their fibrous morphologies. (Prior to the discovery of carbon nanotubes, single-crystal whiskers had the highest tensile strength of any materials known ...

  5. Whisker (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whisker_(metallurgy)

    Whiskers can form on the underside of zinc electroplated floor tiles on raised floors. These whiskers can then become airborne within the floor plenum when the tiles are disturbed, usually during maintenance. Whiskers can be small enough to pass through air filters and can settle inside equipment, resulting in short circuits and system failure. [8]

  6. Ceramic matrix composite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_matrix_composite

    To increase the crack resistance or fracture toughness, particles (so-called monocrystalline whiskers or platelets) were embedded into the matrix. However, the improvement was limited, and those products found application only in some ceramic cutting tools.

  7. List of semiconductor materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_semiconductor...

    A compound semiconductor is a semiconductor compound composed of chemical elements of at least two different species. These semiconductors form for example in periodic table groups 13–15 (old groups III–V), for example of elements from the Boron group (old group III, boron, aluminium, gallium, indium) and from group 15 (old group V, nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, bismuth).

  8. Dendrite (crystal) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dendrite_(crystal)

    The first dendritic patterns were discovered in palaeontology and are often mistaken for fossils because of their appearance. The first theory for the creation of these patterns was published by Nash and Glicksman in 1974, they used a very mathematical method and derived a non-linear integro-differential equation for a classical needle growth.
