It's made from the stuff of microchips: silicon, a layer of silicon dioxide, and on top a very thin film of silicon nitride, which is perforated by a grid of microscopic circular holes.

硅、二氧化硅层以及最上层非常薄的氮化硅薄膜，而这层薄膜被打上排成网格状的微小圆孔。

When the team examined what they had done under a microscope, they found that the graphene had wrapped itself around the silicon-nitride grains, forming continuous walls.

当研究团队在显微镜下观察合成物时，他们发现墨烯包裹在氮化硅颗粒周围，形成了连续的" 壁" 。

Components are made by sintering it in powder form in a mould, at 1,000oC, for several hours.

这些部件将氮化硅粉末置于模具中，处于1000摄氏度高温下烧制数小时而成。

The ceramic they experimented with was silicon nitride, a material much admired in the aerospace industry.

她们测试的陶瓷氮化硅－－一种在太空工业中饱受赞誉的。

The result was a composite that was able to withstand twice as much pressure as unalloyed silicon nitride.

和纯氮化硅相比，其合成物能经受的压力强度翻倍。

Basically, light can be guided in a simple wire of usually an insulating material, so silicon, silicon nitride.

基本上， 光可以在通常由绝缘制成的简单光纤中传导，例如硅、氮化硅等不同类型的玻璃。

We want to bring these down, so we use different materials like silicon nitride.

我们希望将这些尺寸减小，因此使用了不同的，比如氮化硅。
