0 used to refer to an electronic device in which the flow of electrical current is through solid material and not through a vacuum (= space without air) --
The theory has pointed to new, practical methods for manufacturing solid-state devices and integrated circuits which are analogous to development and reproduction in living nature.
Those who have been awarded funding range from optical biochips to very fast genome sequencing technologies with common threads - of solid-state and nanotechnologies.
The switch represents an additional volume with magnetically accelerated solid-state or plasma conductor between the generator and the load.
The ranges of frequency for which this occurs are known in solid-state physics as 'passing bands'.
The ranges of frequency for which propagation without change of amplitude is impossible are known in solid-state physics as 'stopping bands'.
Such a technique provides attractive features for the realization of high-quality, all solid-state, compact pico-second 1 mm lasers operating at high average power.
Numerous groups investigate different solid-state laser concepts with high pulse energy in the past decades.
This process defines the structure of a solid-state device, which in essence is planar.
