Graphene would be a nearly perfect material to use for these circuits, if only we could apply it effectively. While it's extremely conductive, it's flaky and difficult to manufacture at scale.

Flexible circuits and wearables seem to be all the rage these days. We’ve got conductive paint, glue, and even thread. So how about conductive silicone? Well, as it turns out — it’s not that ...

Electrical band-aid: Polymer capsules filled with carbon nanotubes can restore conductivity to electrical circuits when ripped open. The nanotube suspension inside the capsules is visible in the ...

It’s hard to know exactly how technologists might use electrically conductive fibers that can perform at a high level even when stretched to 15 times their length. But it’s possible the fibers ...

One of the major challenges is efficiently managing the heat generated by these systems during operation, which involves controlling the thermal conductivity ... of thermal circuits in certain ...

Such screens are made from networks of highly transparent conductive circuits that connect their constituent LEDs together. For screens measuring a metre or more, either fluorine-doped tin oxide or ...
