Very excited to share our latest work on a novel soft technology! Taking flexible technologies to a new level, we leverage elastic polymers and carbon nanotubes to create thin-film transistors (TFTs) that can be as soft and deformable as our skin and brain. This makes them an ideal candidate for interfacing with biological tissues, to enable large-scale, biocompatible electrophysiological sensing arrays for next-generation brain-machine interfaces. This is an amazing teamwork with Donglai Zhong, Yuanwen Jiang, Zhenan Bao, and many collaborators in Bao Group @Stanford. This is a link to the paper: https://lnkd.in/gJ8jNSWX
Wearable, stretchable electronics could be used to monitor our health, diagnose diseases, and enable improved, autonomous treatments. To achieve this, the electronics must be able to bend and stretch with our tissues, while also being soft enough to prevent scratching or damage. Researchers in Prof. Zhenan Bao’s lab, including postdoctoral researchers Donglai Zhong and Can Wu, have been working on skin-like, stretchable electronic devices for over a decade. Now, they present a new design and fabrication process for skin-like integrated circuits that are five times smaller and operate at one thousand times higher speeds than earlier versions. In one demonstration, the researchers were able to fit more than 2,500 sensors and transistors into a square centimeter, creating an active-matrix tactile array over ten times more sensitive? than human fingertips. ???: Read more about the soft circuits of the future: stanford.io/3v4B3fq ??: Donglai Zhong, Jiancheng Lai, and Yuya Nishio of the Bao Group
