Spotlight on Heraeus

Heraeus bring over 160 years of metals, materials, and technical expertise to the electronics industry. Meet their newly formed Heraeus Printed Electronics team on booth Z34 at Printed Electronics USA 2018 in Santa Clara, CA on 14-15 November.

Material supplier Heraeus on what they can provide

Dr Peter Harrop, Chairman of IDTechEx, discusses the services Heraeus provides as a material supplier and sectors they wish to cover in the future. This includes sectors such as printed electronics, display and touch sensors.

Stretchable and Conformable Electronics: Heading Toward Market Reality

Stretchable and conformal electronics are more than just novelties. This article by IDTechEx analysts Dr Khasha Ghaffarzadeh and James Hayward, first published in SID Information Display, describes how many of the simpler and less glamorous aspects of stretchable and conformable devices have already been commercialized or are very close to being commercialized.

New conductive polymers reduce light reflections on displays

New conductive polymers from the Heraeus Clevios line reduce the sheet resistance on flexible and foldable touchscreens by more than 50%.

VW Caddy fitted with 3D-printed front-end structure

From conceptual design to final vehicle, the project was completed in only nine months.

Stretchable electronics: everything you need to know

Stretchable Electronics is a term that conceals great diversity. Indeed, it is an umbrella term that refers to a whole host of emerging electronic materials, components and devices that exhibit some degree of mechanical stretchability.

In mold electronics: the next frontier for transparent conductive film

In Mold Electronics is making a commercial comeback. The behind-the-scenes interest in IME remains robust. The first wave of products are close to market launch, the value networks are being enhanced, volume manufacturers are more engaged than ever, and the material set is transitioning beyond conductive inks to include transparent conductive films, sensors, actuators, and so on. Overall, we expect 2017/18 to the years when IME applications finally grow after years of on and off starts.

GNext s.a.s.

GNext is an Italian company focused on producing low-cost and high-volume graphene inks using its high yield (30%) process. Dr Khasha Ghaffarzadeh interviewed their Director and Co-founder, Dr Simone Ligi.

Sensor Films Inc.

Sensor Films Inc. (SFI), started around 2013, is a New York-based advanced manufacturing company that seeks to enable the manufacture of flexible hybrid electronics.

Amorphous metals now 3D-printed for the first time

Amorphous metals are suitable for an exceptional number of high-tech applications. They are energy-absorbing and scratch-proof while still having very good spring characteristics.

Event report: Innovations in Large Area Electronics

IDTechEx attended the second innoLAE conference, which took place on the 1st and 2nd of February 2016 in Cambridge (UK). It was organised by the EPSRC Centre for Innovative Manufacturing in Large-Area Electronics.
