However, the materials developed have been used to demonstrated n-type transistors, but p-type transistors have not been commercially available. There are now two organizations that IDTechEx is aware of, and many more working on the topic, claiming p-type ZnO transistors are possible with reproducible results.http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/progress_towards_p_type_metal_oxide_semiconductors_00001017.asp?rsstopicid=226http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/progress_towards_p_type_metal_oxide_semiconductors_00001017.asp?rsstopicid=22630 Jul 2008 Dr Harry Zervos, technology analyst with IDTechEx, interviewed Jacques Angelé, co-founder and VP Technology Programs of Nemoptic SA, an electronic paper display company.http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/idtechex_interviews_co_founder_of_nemoptic_00001016.asp?rsstopicid=226http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/idtechex_interviews_co_founder_of_nemoptic_00001016.asp?rsstopicid=22629 Jul 2008 The 2.7 inch diagonal E Ink display scrolls through 96 different images in a stylish animation and is activated when a call or message is received.http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/e_ink_announces_mobile_phone_design_wins_in_japan_00001010.asp?rsstopicid=226http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/e_ink_announces_mobile_phone_design_wins_in_japan_00001010.asp?rsstopicid=22624 Jul 2008 The 21st Century Begins Now will flash from the cover of the world's first electronic magazine due to appear on newspaper stands in the US late September to celebrate Esquire magazine's 75th year.http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/the_21st_century_begins_now_e_ink_display_on_esquire_magazines_00001007.asp?rsstopicid=226http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/the_21st_century_begins_now_e_ink_display_on_esquire_magazines_00001007.asp?rsstopicid=22623 Jul 2008 Innovative design is used to achieve superior solar conversion without optical tracking.http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/mits_windows_harness_suns_energy_to_power_buildings_00001001.asp?rsstopicid=226http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/mits_windows_harness_suns_energy_to_power_buildings_00001001.asp?rsstopicid=22618 Jul 2008 Researchers have found a simple way to uniformly deposit between one and five layers of graphene to create transistors and proof-of concept electrodes for organic photovoltaics.http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/graphene_could_be_used_one_day_in_large_area_thin_film_electronics_00000999.asp?rsstopicid=226http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/graphene_could_be_used_one_day_in_large_area_thin_film_electronics_00000999.asp?rsstopicid=22617 Jul 2008 European researchers have taken a major step towards the goal of developing printable electronics that can be used for creating radio frequency identification tags and flexible watch displays.http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/researchers_developing_printed_electronics_for_creating_rfid_tags_00000982.asp?rsstopicid=226http://www.idtechex.com/research/articles/researchers_developing_printed_electronics_for_creating_rfid_tags_00000982.asp?rsstopicid=22603 Jul 2008
