The history of flexible electronics is extensive. Over half a century ago, single crystalline silicon solar cells were thinned to increase their power/weight ratio to make them suitable for ...

Consider all of the electronics devices you own right now. Every time you realize you forgot to charge your device, imagine if you could charge the same device while walking or jogging. Image Credit: ...

Flexible and stretchable electronics have gained significance owing to their ability to be compressed, twisted, and molded into non-planar surfaces. Soft, flexible, and stretchable materials ...

While we are working on the integration of automation and data exchange in manufacturing in the era of Industry 4.0, extensive research and development has started on Industry 5.0 that aims to achieve ...

A market survey for transparent electronics reported by IDTechEx predicts market growth of twenty billion dollars by 2041. According to the report, thin film transistors (TFTs), display devices, ...

The picture that pops up before our inner eye when we hear the word "satellite" is probably this: Two extended solar "wings" and a compact body wrapped in foil with a golden or silvery shimmer.

Hydrogels have emerged as a promising candidate for developing bioelectronics, which interface living biological tissues with synthetic electronic systems. These hydrogels closely mimic the mechanical ...

Northeastern University researchers have discovered that materials used in the development of transient electronics—devices ...

The realm of flexible electronics is not limited to plastic substrates alone. Innovations have introduced an array of materials, including textiles, ultra-thin glass, and even paper. These substrates ...

When you think of a battery, you probably don't think stretchy. But batteries will need this shape-shifting quality to be incorporated into flexible electronics, which are gaining traction for ...

The FLEX Conference, held again this year in conjunction with SEMICON West 2023, provided numerous examples of continued developments in flexible, printed, and flexible hybrid electronics technologies ...
