The memristor
19 March 2010
The memristor "the missing link of electronics" was finally built in 2008, using nothing more than titanium dioxide and metal electrodes in thin films. In 2009 NIST printed them on plastic f...
NILT launch nickel standard stamp with microlens structures
Read more: NILT launch nickel standard stamp with microlens structures
The new standard stamp features a large area of 50 mm x 50 mm with closely packed microlens array structures. The features are concave so that imprinting/embossing into a polymer film forms a microlens array in a low cost and feasible manner. Micro...
POLARIC revolutionises production of organic electronic circuits
A new EU-funded project POLARIC was launched in January 2010 to develop roll-to-roll printing of high-performance organic electronic circuits. This project revolutionises the way printed electronic circuits are made by combining large-area fabricat...
Novel method accelerates progress in OLED lighting efficiency
Scientists from Philips Research and the Eindhoven University of Technology (TUe) have developed a novel method for accurately measuring the active layer in organic light-emitting diode (OLED) lighting. This is an important step forward for OLED de...
Printed Electronics Europe on track to exceed 1000 attendees
With a month still to go, more than 650 unique attendees from 24 countries have registered for Europe's largest show covering printed electronics Printed Electronics Europe 2010 and its many variants (flexible, organic and inorganic electronics). A...

170 years ago, Faraday appreciated the different electrical properties of nano gold over bulk metal in electrical devices, so applying nanotechnology to these things is scarcely new. However, the huge sums now being applied to improvement of lithium ...
CNTs & graphene and the situation in Germany
The demands placed on new, high-tech materials are continually increasing, and existing material systems are reaching their limits. Due to their exceptional electrical and mechanical properties, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene and their composite m...
