  2. Air separation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_separation

    A nitrogen generator Bottle of 4Å molecular sieves. Pressure swing adsorption provides separation of oxygen or nitrogen from air without liquefaction. The process operates around ambient temperature; a zeolite (molecular sponge) is exposed to high pressure air, then the air is released and an adsorbed film of the desired gas is released.

  3. Pressure swing adsorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_swing_adsorption

    VSA typically draws the gas through the separation process with a vacuum. For oxygen and nitrogen VSA systems, the vacuum is typically generated by a blower. Hybrid vacuum pressure swing adsorption (VPSA) systems also exist. VPSA systems apply pressurized gas to the separation process and also apply a vacuum to the purge gas.

  4. IBM airgap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_airgap

    The technique fabricates air gaps on a large scale by exploiting the self-assembly properties of certain polymers.These polymers can be easily integrated into the process modules (a collection of related steps that fabricate a structure on an integrated circuit) used in conventional CMOS fabrication, avoiding the costs of heavily modifying the process technology (the collection of process ...

  5. Semiconductor device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiconductor_device

    A semiconductor device is an electronic component that relies on the electronic properties of a semiconductor material (primarily silicon, germanium, and gallium arsenide, as well as organic semiconductors) for its function. Its conductivity lies between conductors and insulators. Semiconductor devices have replaced vacuum tubes in

  6. 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).

  7. Elutriation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elutriation

    An air elutriator is a simple device which can separate particles into two or more groups. Material may be separated by means of an elutriator, which consists of a vertical tube up which fluid is passed at a controlled velocity. When the particles are introduced, often through a side tube, the smaller particles are carried over in the fluid st

  8. Aqueous two-phase system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aqueous_two-phase_system

    Aqueous biphasic systems (ABS) or aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) are clean alternatives for traditional organic-water solvent extraction systems.. ABS are formed when either two polymers, one polymer and one kosmotropic salt, or two salts (one chaotropic salt and the other a kosmotropic salt) are mixed at appropriate concentrations or at a particular temperature.

  9. Silicon photonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_photonics

    The semiconductor used for carrier generation has usually a band-gap smaller than the photon energy, and the most common choice is pure germanium. [ 25 ] [ 26 ] Most detectors use a p–n junction for carrier extraction, however, detectors based on metal–semiconductor junctions (with germanium as the semiconductor) have been integrated into ...
