SILICON STRETCHES ELECTRONICS FAMILY

Stretchable silicon offers different capabilities than can be achieved with standard silicon chips as part of the Science Express website. The circuits can be wrapped around complex shapes such as spheres, body parts and aircraft wings, and can operate during stretching, compressing, folding and other types of extreme mechanical deformations. Researchers at theUniversityofIllinoisandNorthwesternUniversityhave developed a read more »
