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

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Researchers have come up with a way of getting conductive polymer gels to adhere to wet surfaces. Polymers that are good conductors of electricity could be useful in biomedical devices, to help with ...

(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.
