Engineers have produced fully recyclable printed electronics that replace the use of chemicals with water in the fabrication process. By bypassing the need for hazardous chemicals, the demonstration ...

Researchers produced 3D-printed, semiconductor-free logic gates, which perform computations in active electronic devices. As they don't require semiconductor materials, they represent a step toward 3D ...

“Right now, DoD customers and federal [contractors] often wait 28 weeks or more for a prototype printed circuit board,” says Ramsdell. “They get a batch of 10, and only one or two might work. By the ...

The University of Texas at Austin researchers have developed a chemical process that could revolutionize light-driven 3D printing. The University of Texas at Austin Vat photopolymerization, a powerful ...

The FLEX Conference, held again this year in conjunction with SEMICON West 2023, provided numerous examples of continued developments in flexible, printed, and flexible hybrid electronics technologies ...

Space Foundry printed electrodes that could be used in space-based biological and chemical sensors on parabolic flights in Nov. and Dec. 2021 and June 2022. As NASA prepares to send astronauts back to ...

Why the electronics industry faces pressure to create more sustainable products. What steps can be taken to create more sustainable flexible electronics in the future. By 2030, global electronic waste ...

After several years of experimentation, and growing success in volume manufacturing for some use cases, technologies for 3D printing of electronic circuits are becoming more common. Some innovations ...

It is already apparent that some of the world’s largest and most important companies are exploring the use of electronics 3D printing. This includes Google GOOG, Meta, GE, Johnson & Johnson JNJ, and ...

Jet printing enables flexible displays, but what will drive manufacturers toward ink-jet- and polymer-based substrates are the potential manufacturing cost savings, says Jim Brug, imaging materials ...
