Carbon nanotube 'sandpaper' polishes semiconductor surfaces down to a few atoms
The performance and stability of smartphones and artificial intelligence (AI) services depend on how uniformly and precisely semiconductor surfaces are processed. KAIST researchers have expanded the concept of everyday "sandpaper" into the realm of nanotechnology, developing a new technique capable of processing semiconductor surfaces uniformly down to the atomic level.
