Piezoelectric generators are based on thin-films of structured materials that can convert pressure into electricity. Inorganic crystals such as aluminum-nitride (AlN) barium titanate (BT) and lead-zirconium-titanate (PZT) have long been explored as piezoelectric films for various applications. Now researchers Sujoy…
Organic Processors Offer Microwatt Applications
Printing low power-low performance microprocessors onto organic materials will open a wide range of cost effective alternatives to silicon-based embedded devices, but resolution remains a problem.
