Toward imperceptible electronics that you cannot see or feel
Dec 14, 2020 (Nanowerk News) Transparent electronics--such as head-up displays that allow pilots to read flight data while keeping their eyes ahead of them--improve safety and allow users to access data while in transit. For healthcare applications, the electronics need to not only be cheap and straightforward to fabricate, but...
