Once considered merely insulating, a change in the angle between silicon and oxygen atoms opens a pathway for electrical charge to flow. A breakthrough discovery from the University of Michigan has revealed that a new form of silicone can act as a semiconductor. This finding challenges the long-held belief that silicones are only insulating materials…
