To solve the problem, the team turned to plastic, instead of silicon, as the basis of the chips.

Key Points: 
  • To solve the problem, the team turned to plastic, instead of silicon, as the basis of the chips.
  • FlexiCores are built on thin-film transistors made with the semiconductor indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO), which works even when bent and is compatible with plastic.
  • "These chips combine the flexibility and cost benefits of plastic technology with the high yield and low bill of materials enabled by our architecture," Kumar said.
  • With this research, Kumar and his team are pioneering flexible electronics with new application frontiers.
