Scalable 100% yield production of conductive graphene inks

Conductive inks based on graphene and layered materials are key for low-cost manufacturing of flexible electronics, novel energy solutions, composites and coatings. A new method for liquid-phase exfoliation of graphite paves the way for scalable production.

Graphene's sleeping superconductivity awakens

Since its discovery in 2004, scientists have believed that graphene may have the innate ability to superconduct. Now researchers have found a way to activate that previously dormant potential.

Environmentally-friendly graphene textiles for wearable electronics

A new method for producing conductive cotton fabrics using graphene-based inks opens up new possibilities for flexible and wearable electronics, without the use of expensive and toxic processing steps.

Innovations in Large-Area Electronics Conference (innoLAE 2017)

A key event for the large-area electronics community, bringing industry and academia together and providing valuable opportunities to share the latest research results and discuss new projects and collaborations.

Owl-inspired wing design reduces wind turbine noise by 10 decibels

A team of researchers studying the acoustics of owl flight are working to pinpoint the mechanisms that accomplish this virtual silence to improve man-made aerodynamic design - of wind turbines, aircraft, underwater vehicles and, even, automobiles.

Next-generation smartphone battery inspired by the gut

A new prototype of a lithium-sulphur battery - which could have five times the energy density of a typical lithium-ion battery - overcomes one of the key hurdles preventing their commercial development by mimicking the structure of the cells which allow us to absorb nutrients.

Ultralow power transistors could function for years without a battery

A new design for transistors which operate on 'scavenged' energy from their environment could form the basis for devices which function for months or years without a battery, and could be used for wearable or implantable electronics.

Printed energy harvesting device for the next gen smart packaging

A novel printed energy harvesting device, which will play an important role in the development of packaging with electronic functionality.

Cambridge CMOS Sensors

IDTechEx interviewed Jess Brown, Sales & Marketing Director at Cambridge CMOS Sensors, following their acquisition by Austrian sensor company ams announced in June 2016.

Researchers build the world's tiniest engine

Researchers have developed the world's tiniest engine - just a few billionths of a metre in size - which uses light to power itself.

Solar cell material can recycle light to boost efficiency

Perovskite materials can recycle light particles - a finding which could lead to a new generation of affordable, high-performance solar cells.

Meeting with ALABC/ILA London 13 Jan 2016

The International Lead Association (ILA) now runs the Advanced Lead Acid Battery Corporation (ALABC) and it is repositioning it to basic research at the request of its members.

Two-dimensional material moves from the lab to the UK factory floor

Graphene is a two-dimensional material made up of sheets of carbon atoms. With its combination of exceptional electrical, mechanical and thermal properties, graphene has the potential to revolutionise industries ranging from healthcare to electronics.

Intelligent packaging for pharmaceuticals

The Centre for Process Innovation is part of a UK based consortium developing technologies that will spearhead the commercialisation of intelligent pharmaceutical packaging.

New design points a path to the ultimate battery

Researchers have successfully demonstrated how several of the problems impeding the practical development of the so-called 'ultimate' battery could be overcome.

Cambridge Graphene announces new graphene ink patent application

Cambridge Graphene Ltd has announced that a new graphene patent application to produce commercial volumes of environmentally-friendly graphene inks, was filed on its behalf by Cambridge Enterprise, the commercialisation arm of the University of Cambridge.

Graphene based inks for high-speed manufacturing printed electronics

A low-cost, high-speed method for printing electronics using graphene and other conductive materials could open up a wide range of commercial applications.

Blackest material ever made sets new record

The perfect black body exists only in textbooks, absorbing as it does, theoretically, all energy hitting its surface and then subsequently emitting that energy without loss.
