ICN2 researchers have developed a novel concept in transistor technology: a two-in-one power source plus transistor device that runs on solar energy. Published in Advanced Functional Materials, lead author Amador Pérez-Tomás is calling it the “solaristor.” Transistors are everywhere in modern electronic devices. They are in your phones, your radios, your computers… Where wires transport electricity from […]
A Cost-Effective Method for Producing Printed Flexible Graphene-Based Electronics
The introduction of flexible electronics was a paradigm change on established technologies. Now, researchers at the Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology (BIST), present a versatile, low-cost and customizable method for patterning graphene oxide onto multiple substrates. This patented technique, published in the latest issue of ACS Nano, might also be applicable to other electronic materials. […]
