Thinfilm and Polyera partner to bring printed CMOS memory to market

Thinfilm has formed a partnership with Polyera to develop organic semiconductor materials for high-volume printing of Thinfilm Addressable Memory and printed integrated systems. The collaboration brings printed integrated systems, such as smart sensor tags, closer to commercial availability.

On moving printed electronics from enabling technology to application

IDTechEx has already shared the sheer scope, profiles of key players, enabling devices, and commercial product possibilities presented by printed electronics. Just a couple years ago, we tracked 500 organizations (50% universities & research institutes, 50% corporations) developing printed or organic transistors, and found that the combined commercial revenue of products using these transistors was zero - in other words, the industry still needed time, money, and partnerships to scale.

Thinfilm unveils first scalable printed CMOS memory

Combination of Thinfilm printed rewritable memory and PARC transistors enables low-cost, printed integrated systems for the "Internet of things".

Thinfilm launches printed memory for secure documents

Thinfilm launches printed memory for secure documents and high-volume consumer applications. Thin Film Electronics have launched the Thinfilm Passive Array Memory, a fully printed non-volatile rewriteable memory suitable for secure documents. The capacity is doubled compared to Thinfilm's standard memory.
