Flexible battery
Recently developed a new technology for constructing the elements of power, which will make the battery flexible and, obviously, largely change the face of portable devices. New ultra-thin lithium-ion batteries are actually based on a sheet of paper - this way achieved properties such as flexibility and light weight. The results of the research were published in the journal ACS Nano scientists from Stanford University. According to the presented materials, the thickness of the ne
w batteries can reach 300 micrometers. In doing so they have a high energy density and have functional advantages over other types of thin batteries. In order to create new batteries, Stanford experts on materials with hard base surface with a thin film of carbon nanotubes on top of which was covered by a layer of metal-based lithium. Thereafter, the resulting structure was placed on both sides of an ordinary sheet of paper. Thus, a layer of lithium acts as an electrode, while the nanotu
bes will play the role of the current collector. In turn, the paper provides separation of the electrodes, as well as mechanical support. Of course, the onset of gadgets with similar batteries will have to wait but, nonetheless, it is nice to imagine what they might be.

"E-skin" from Nokia
Engineers from the Nokia Research Center and Cambridge produced the first prototypes of the so-called "e-skin» (electronic skin) - printed circuit boards of a flexible material, with the touchpad. Conductor was obtained by vacuum deposition of gold. Such fees will be used for the production of wearable electronics. You may be able, for example, sew in clothing or put on the brush, like a rubber bandage. New material like rubber and can stretch up
to 20% without damaging the electronic components.

Flexible display technology electrowetting
Company Liquavista, known for its developments in the field of displays was noted by another achievement in this field. Officially announced innovations introduced so far in the form of prototypes are the first flexible displays based on electrowetting effect. Based on it, you can create displays with extremely low power, capable at the same time show the lively bright colors and work with video. This is achieved thanks to the similar effect of changes in surface properties with respect to water under the influence of an electric current. Note that in the new development Liquavista standard glass layer is replaced by a flexible substrate, which makes this display is quite elastic and allows it to bend in different directions. In this case all the above-mentioned useful properties of displays based on electrowetting effect, including low power consumption and the possibility of a demonstration video, are stored. Furthermore, such displays are resistant to external influences, such as strokes and falls. Such displays may well find application in future samples, portable electronics, including electronic books.
