Key Points TU Graz explores energy-efficient production of doped silicon layers using functionalized hydrosilanes. The initiative aims to tackle inefficiencies in conventional crystalline silicon production, which wastes significant raw materials. The research targets advanced materials for electronics and solar cell industries. Austria strengthens its position as a semiconductor research and innovation hub with government and corporate backing. A research team at the Institute of Inorganic Chemistry at Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) is pioneering sustainable and energy-efficient methods to...
