Based upon these facts, Seiyama et al. for the first time developed semiconductor-based detector for gaseous components [7].
"That is when I got into the developing semiconductor industry," he says.
Emcore develops semiconductor wafers and devices as well as the tools and processes to manufacture such chips.
In choosing or developing semiconductor materials suitable for thermoelectric generators, a useful figure of merit is the square of the Seebeck coefficient divided by the product of the electrical resistivity and the thermal conductivity.
The pair came to the university in 1993 from TRW's labs in Redondo Beach, Calif., where they were developing semiconductor lasers.
In a similar cost-cutting move, in January AMD announced that it would jointly develop semiconductor manufacturing technologies for 65-nanometer and 45-nanometer chips with IBM.
The 2014 Japan Prize recognizes Yasuharu Suematsu of the Tokyo Institute of Technology for developing semiconductor lasers and David Allis of Rockefeller University in New York City for elucidating the function of histones.
