Biodegradable pressure sensors for electronic or tactile skin!
Ravinder and co-workers at the University of Glasgow have shown a biodegradable piezoelectric material as a pressure sensor that is then coupled with a graphene field-effect transistor. Read about this work in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces.
Nanoelectronic device characterisation!
Dimitars, Ben, Michael and Martin have recently presented multiplexer methodology and hardware for nanoelectronic device characterisation. This is a proof-of-concept demonstration of a versatile platform for scalable fabrication and cryogenic characterization of nanomaterial device arrays, which is compatible with a broad range of nanomaterials, transfer techniques, and device integration strategies from the forefront of quantum technology research. Read about this work in ACS Nano.
Transfer printing with an Absolute Accuracy Alignment System!
Dimitars, Ben, Martin and Michael from the Institute of Photonics at the University of Strathclyde have developed an automated transfer printing process by using a simple optical microscope, computer vision, and a high accuracy translational stage system. Look at their work in ACS Applied Nanomaterials.
Gigabit per second visible light communication!
Martin and Michael from the Institute of Photonics at the University of Strathclyde have recently shown that AlGaInP red micro-LEDs, produced via micro-transfer printing onto diamond and glass, are capable of high speed visible light communication. Read about this work in Optics Express.
High performance printed electronics review!
Abishek, Adamos and Ravinder from the University of Glasgow recently reported on new developments in inorganic semiconducting materials based high-performance large area printed electronics, particularly using contact printing and transfer printing methods. Read about this work in Nano Convergence.
AlGaAs micro-disk resonators transfer printed onto a SOI waveguide platform!
The team at the Intistute of Photonics at the University of Strathclyde demonstrate the transfer-printing of aluminum gallium arsenide (AlGaAs) micro-disk resonators onto a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguide platform with potential applications in telecommunications.
