Aston Martin

Aston Martin, the iconic British manufacturer of sports cars, have set their sights on electrification but have hit a few speed bumps along the way.

Corning

I caught up with Corning on the topic of thin flexible glass. The first I heard about this project was during a 2010 demonstration of the rollable glass at SID. It has therefore been a long journey already.

Ink-based conformable package-level EMI shielding

Ink-based conformable package-level EMI shielding: a megatrend or supplier push? In this article we consider the trend towards ink-based conformable package-level EMI shielding. The more general trend towards conformable package-level shielding is a major one, and is already in full swing. Indeed, many products have already adopted such coating, replacing the established bulky lid-based shields.
