The organic light-emitting diode (OLED) technology behind flexible cell phones, curved monitors, and televisions could one ...

A new material for flexible electronics could enable multilayered, recyclable electronic devices and help limit e-waste. Electronic waste, or e-waste, is a rapidly growing global problem, and it's ...

Designing flexible electronics has long been constrained by the limits of two-dimensional printing. Now, researchers have introduced a novel method that “draws” rather than extrudes ink into air, ...

New and repurposed fabrication techniques for flexible electronic devices are proliferating rapidly. Some may wonder if they are better than traditional methods and at what point they’ll be ...

A multi-institutional research team has engineered a way to preserve the electrical properties of materials as they are shrunk to the nanoscale. The use of the soft substrate hexagonal boron nitride ...

Designers are familiar with rigid print circuit boards (PCBs) typified by the classic FR4 substrate as well as more advanced substrates which are compatible with multi-gigahertz applications. It’s ...

A European consortium is developing flexible tandem modules based on perovskite and copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS) for residential, commercial, vehicle-integrated PV (VIPV) and agrivoltaics ...

Biological systems have inspired the development of next-generation soft robotic systems with diverse motions and functions. Such versatility in soft robots—in terms of rapid and efficient ...
