Flexible glass for flexible electronics
German technology companies SCHOTT AG, tesa SE and VON ARDENNE GmbH have formed an industry consortium to develop new technologies for the use of glass on roll in organic electronics. [ + ]
Drones and standards
At a time when drones have become a regular feature in the news and are about to proliferate our airspace, it's a good idea to take a step back and examine some very basic and important questions. [ + ]
Researchers pinpoint defects in perovskites
University of Washington and University of Oxford researchers have discovered that perovskite materials, generally believed to be uniform in composition, actually contain flaws that can be engineered to improve solar devices even further. [ + ]
Is IoT a threat?
There's lots of talk about the benefits of the Internet of Things, particularly in the industrial arena, but is there a downside? [ + ]
CNTs take aircraft manufacturing out of the oven
Composite materials used in aircraft wings and fuselages are typically manufactured in large, industrial-sized ovens - multiple polymer layers are blasted with temperatures up to 399°C and solidified to form a solid, resilient material. [ + ]
Antennas on a chip
University of Cambridge researchers have unravelled one of the mysteries of electromagnetism, which could enable the design of antennas small enough to be integrated into an electronic chip. [ + ]

Stanford University scientists have invented a high-performance aluminium battery that is fast charging, long lasting and inexpensive. [ + ]
N-type polymer for fast organic battery
Researchers at the University of Houston have developed an efficient, conductive electron-transporting polymer, a long-missing puzzle piece that will allow ultrafast battery applications. [ + ]
Stanford invention could lead to better, cheaper chips
Computer chips, solar cells and other electronic devices have traditionally been based on silicon, the most famous of the semiconductors. [ + ]
The complex but promising future of LEDs
"The LED market is a complex but promising market," said Pars Mukish, business unit manager, LED, OLED and Sapphire at Yole Développement (Yole). [ + ]
Developing motion analysis algorithms
Elite athletes want to return to match play as quickly as possible after injury. As a result, they often convince themselves and their physicians that they are fit to play before they have fully recovered. [ + ]
