What if a doctor could inject an electricity-conducting liquid into the body, let it temporarily solidify to record nerve ...

There are some technologies first imagined in the Star Trek universe have already come to exist in the modern day. Communicators, tablet computers, and computer voice recognition are nearly as good as ...

Bioelectronics, such as implantable health monitors or devices that stimulate brain cells, are not as soft as the surrounding tissues due to their metal electronic circuits. A team of scientists from ...

Studying spinal cord injuries requires a material that can transmit clear signals yet remain flexible for when patients move around. Researchers at Binghamton University think they have hit upon a ...

Ordinarily, if you want to build a device that's highly electrically conductive, you have to use rigid metals. Now, however, scientists at Carnegie Mellon University have created a soft and flexible ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The electrode in lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries is an integrated system in which both active materials and binder systems play critical roles in determining its final properties.

North Carolina State University researchers have developed a metallic gel that is highly electrically conductive and can be used to print three-dimensional solid objects at room temperature. In a ...

A research team has developed what they call a 'dip-and-peel' strategy for simple and rapid fabrication of two-dimensional ionogel membranes. By dipping sustainable biomass materials in certain ...
