Materials science: A 'bed of nails' on silicon
Max G. Lagally1 & Robert H. Blick1
Abstract
The future of electronics may rest on devices that integrate other semiconductors with silicon. A means of creating tiny semiconductor pillars on a silicon surface is now demonstrated.
Computers rely on silicon. Although other semiconductors have desirable features, in this context the materials properties of silicon are so outstanding that it is really the only choice for the large-scale integration of fast electronic devices.
