Researchers have developed an inkjet printing technique that can be used to print optical components such as waveguides. Because the printing approach can also fabricate electronics and microfluidics, ...

Perovskite technology is under dynamic development within the last few years. In 2013, perovskite solar cells have been nominated to be one of the TOP 10 scientific breakthroughs of the year by ...

Young scientists from ITMO University proposed a new type of optical nano-sensors. Their operating principle is based on the interaction of light in thin films: a similar effect can be observed in ...

University of Wisconsin--Madison engineers have developed low-cost sensors that allow for real-time, continuous monitoring of nitrate in soil types that are common in Wisconsin. These printed ...

Alessandro Fraleoni Morgera holds a PhD in Industrial Chemistry, achieved at the University of Bologna, Italy. He currently works as Senior Researcher at the Univ. of Trieste, Dept. of Engineering and ...

Integrating sensors within soft robots has been difficult in part because most sensors, such as those used in traditional electronics, are rigid. Harvard researchers developed an organic ionic ...

Printing electronics using conductive ink rather than lithography is starting to move out of the research phase, with chipmakers now looking at how to commercialize this technology across a broad ...
