Stretchable Ink for Flexible Electronic Fabrics
When fabric stretches, printed patterns crack and separate. This new conductive ink maintains the integrity of printed circuits for electronic textiles.
All-Aqueous-Printed And Low-Temperature Transistors
Researchers have demonstrated all-aqueous-printed transparent electrodes and semiconducting layers for high performance, low-cost transistors for flexible electronics applications.
Unveiling the Filament Nature of Resistive Switching Phenomena
A Ni2O3 phase as a highly possible filament structure, where the Ni2O3 phase was directly observed by high-resolution TEM in the unipolar NiO thin films by comparing low resistance state and high resistance state samples.
Strain as a Key to Applied Antiferromagnetic Spintronics
A new approach was presented to employ external mechanical strain for changing the domain distribution in Mn2Au.
