Norwegian-owned Thin Film Electronics, or Thinfilm, is in the business of printing electronics in massive volumes at a fraction of the cost of traditional silicon-based products. Its offerings range ...

In a recent study published in Nature Electronics, an international team of researchers led by Fudan University in China examined the potential for printable, wirelessly powered sensor nodes that ...

A huge portion of electronic devices that are discarded at the end of their lives are never recycled, and a big part of the problem is the difficulty in separating out and recovering the valuable ...

Thin films made from silver nanowires are 4,000 times more conductive than films made from other nanoparticle shapes, like spheres or microflakes, says a new study. The results indicate that ...

Printable electronics are a hot topic. Through printing, electronic devices can now be built on flexible or form-fitting substrates, making it possible to produce ultrathin, rollable televisions, or ...

When it comes to efficiency, sometimes it helps to look to Mother Nature for advice -- even in technology as advanced as printable, flexible electronics. Researchers have developed bio-inspired ...

With people worldwide increasingly concerned about keeping the planet inhabitable for this generation and future ones, there are ongoing efforts to make electronics more sustainable by elevating their ...
