, and not much else. But if you replace that metallic ink with real silver, you get something quite remarkable: a pen that can draw functioning circuits on paper. Engineers at the University of ...

Big Blue is tinkering with a new material that could drastically slash the costs of ?drawing? circuits on semiconductors, and the stuff is a close relative to tennis shoe glue. Michael Kanellos is ...

The demand for ever faster, cheaper electronics is pushing the lithography-based manufacturing techniques standard in the semiconductor industry to their limits. Now researchers report a cheap, fast ...

Scientists have developed a way to produce soft, flexible and stretchy electronic circuits and radio antennas by hand, simply by writing on specially designed sheets of material. This technique could ...

Gel-ink pens aren’t just for drawing In lab testing using paper as the flexible surface, they had to bend the paper back and forth about 6,000 times before the dried silver ink flaked and cracked too ...

IBM is tinkering with a new material that could drastically slash the costs of "drawing" circuits on semiconductors, and the stuff is a close relative to tennis shoe glue. At the International ...
