Physics World Materials Briefing 2022
Materials researchers often stubbornly refuse to accept the status quo. Electronic devices, for example, are usually made from components that do not interface well with biological materials – a consequence, in part, of the rigid, crystalline nature of silicon. Over the past few decades, however, experts in organic electronics have been working diligently to turn this situation on its head. As this free-to-read Physics World Materials Briefing reveals, recent achievements in this area include the first organic bipolar transistor, bioelectronics materials that are conductive, stretchable and photo-patternable, and even a graphene-based tattoo for measuring blood pressure.
