THE HINDU Scientists print flexible electronics
CONTEXT:
- Scientists have developed a process to 3D-print transparent and flexible electronic circuits, paving the way for improved wearable devices in the future.
BACKGROUND:
- The electronics consists of a mesh of silver nanowires that can be printed in suspension and embedded in various flexible and transparent plastics.
- This technology can enable new applications such as printable light-emitting diodes, solar cells or tools with integrated circuits.
- The aim of this study was to functionalise 3D-printable polymers for different applications.
