Thin film electronics on flexible substrates is a rapidly evolving technology that has the potential to revolutionize various industries, including healthcare, consumer electronics, and aerospace.

The discovery of nanoparticles has significantly impacted many fields of science. Nanoparticles, with their unique properties due to their small size and large surface-area-to-volume ratio, have ...

Plastics make up approximately 5–12 % of global waste generation, constituting around 20–30 % of waste by weight. Alarmingly, about 60 % of plastics end up as plastic waste (PW) in the environment. 2 ...

Thin films can be made from a variety of materials, including metals (e.g., gold, silver), oxides (e.g., silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide), and semiconductors (e.g ...

In previous studies of thin film wrinkling on soft substrates, the mechanics models usually assume plane-strain deformation, which was found to disagree with experimental observations for narrow thin ...

Thin films form the basis of many industries today, including semiconductors, electric vehicles, smart optical coatings, sophisticated medical equipment, and protective layers on high-temperature ...

Semiconductor devices are becoming thinner and more complex, making thin deposited films even harder to measure and control. With 3nm node devices in production and 2nm nodes ramping toward ...

Artificial intelligence is one of the driving forces in today’s semiconductor industry, with more traditional market drivers like high performance compute and smart phones continuing to play important ...
