Researchers, have created ink for an inkjet printer from a highly conductive type of two-dimensional material called MXene. Recent findings, published in Nature Communications, suggest that the ink can be used to print flexible energy storage components, such as supercapacitors, in any size or shape.

Scientists have developed and patented the fabrication of transparent, luminescent material they say could give smartphone and television screens flexible, stretchable, and shatterproof properties.

A collaboration deepens the understanding of the impact that changing the materials in a perovskite solar cell has on its performance. The results will help rationalize the design of the components of cells, thus increasing their commercial appeal.

Liquid-metal mixture bends the rules on flexible and highly conductive materials for wearable devices.

Researchers have found an unprecedented, economical method for creating high-performance inorganic thin films, or "epitaxial" films, used in the manufacture of semiconductors for flexible electronics, LEDs and solar cells.

JEC World continues to be the premier annual event for composites. This premium article from IDTechEx Research highlights the key takeaways from this event.

The automotive industry has emerged as a significant market opportunity for suppliers of conductive pastes and similar materials. It has the potential to one day rival in significance the irreplaceable photovoltaic market. Almost every major paste supplier with a global profile is re-organising its team and its product portfolio to capture this rising trend.

The Urban signs, installed at the bus stops of the international arrivals terminal, each feature two 13.3"electronic paper screens, both providing Real Time Passenger Information to commuters.

In this slide presentation (see link below) we assess non-graphene 2D materials, focusing mainly on MoS2 as the main example of the family of 2D TMDs (transition metal dichalcogenides).

Evonik is unveiling TAeTTOOz®, a new material technology for printable batteries that has been developed on the basis of what are known as redox polymers by Creavis, the strategic innovation unit of Evonik.

Lithium batteries are what allow electric vehicles to travel several hundred miles on one charge. Their capacity for energy storage is well known, but so is their tendency to occasionally catch on fire - an occurrence known to battery researchers as "thermal runaway."

JOLED Inc has been developing the world's first printed OLED display mass-production lines, and started building production lines for the post-process at the recently established JOLED Chiba Site.

At the IDTechEx Graphene & 2D Materials conference and exhibition in Berlin on April 10-11, the first graphene award for the Most Significant Advancement In Graphene, CNT, Or 2D Material Commercialisation was presented.

PragmatIC announces that in just 2 months it has received orders for over 20 million flexible integrated circuits. Orders from customers in Europe, North America and Asia endorse PragmatIC's unique technology platform as the ideal solution for introducing connectivity into mass market applications.

At the 15th IDTechEx Printed Electronics Europe conference and exhibition in Berlin on April 10-11, four companies were honoured for their great achievements in developing and commercialising printed electronics technologies.

Researchers have developed screen-printed sensors that could offer a faster, convenient and low-cost method to detect the drug fentanyl. The sensors can detect micromolar concentrations of fentanyl in just one minute. They are easy to produce, cost only a few cents apiece, and are disposable.

Nano-carbons have exceptional electrical, thermal and mechanical properties at the nano-scale level.

In the new report "Smart Packaging 2019-2029", IDTechEx Research finds that electronic smart packaging will become a $1.8 Billion market in 2029.

CPI is part of a project focused on next generation battery and sensor work. Operating alongside partners on the BatterySense programme, CPI is supporting work to reduce the size of existing wireless sensing form factors by exploiting additive manufacture. This allows for the intimate integration of batteries into the substrates of ultrathin label-like sensors fabricated by roll-to-roll processes.

CPES2019 explores the broad spectrum of flexible, printable and hybrid electronics and the value chain required to bring innovative products and applications to market.
