Credit: Maksym Myronov / University of Warwick, edited Scientists from the University of Warwick and the National Research Council of Canada have reported the highest "hole mobility" ever measured in a material that works within today's silicon-based semiconductor manufacturing. Silicon (Si) forms the foundation of most modern semiconductor devices, but as components shrink and are packed closer together, they
