10+ hour, 27+ min ago   (628+ words) Semiconductors are the beating heart of modern technology, yet the organic varieties that promise flexible, lightweight and cheap alternatives to silicon have long been haunted by an inconvenient paradox. To conduct electricity, many organic frameworks need to be treated with…...

1+ day, 1+ hour ago   (831+ words) The human brain computes with ions. Every thought, memory and movement begins with charged atoms drifting across membranes, accumulating at junctions and triggering cascades of electrochemical activity that no silicon circuit has ever fully replicated. Now, a wave of research…...

1+ week, 1+ day ago   (738+ words) In a result that could reshape the future of miniature electronics, researchers have demonstrated ferroelectricity in a two-dimensional semiconductor just six ångströms thick—roughly the width of a single chemical bond stretched a few times over....

1+ week, 6+ day ago   (863+ words) For decades, chemists working on electronic materials have treated molecular decomposition as the enemy—a process to be suppressed with every stabilizing trick at their disposal. A new study flips that instinct on its head....

2+ week, 20+ hour ago   (677+ words) A new class of soft electronic amplifiers could help implantable biosensors record the body’s faint electrical signals more accurately, even as living tissue stretches, bends and moves. The devices, described by W. Sun, X. Pan, W. Yuan and colleagues, combine…...

2+ week, 1+ day ago   (659+ words) Perovskite solar cells have long promised a cheaper, more versatile alternative to conventional silicon photovoltaics, yet the manufacturing methods needed to turn that promise into mass-produced devices remain stubbornly difficult. A new study reports a way to produce fully screen-printed…...
