For decades, the electronics industry has optimized primarily for cost, speed, and scale. While this approach fueled rapid innovation, it often came at the expense of transparency, repairability, and ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The development of flexible electronic devices has faced a persistent materials science challenge: how to securely attach rigid metal components to flexible polymer surfaces.

A new frontier in nanoscale and flexible electronics has emerged in the last decade, based on thin materials consisting of just a few layers of atoms. However, unlike conventional semiconductor ...

(Nanowerk News) As silicon-based computer chips approach their physical limitations in the quest for faster and smaller designs, the search for alternative materials that remain functional at atomic ...

Stretchable, flexible electronics are an attractive component for skin-attached sensors and monitors. A team at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) has developed these electronics ...

Modern materials must be recyclable and sustainable. Consumer electronics is no exception, with organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) taking over modern televisions and portable device displays.
