Research focus and goals
While CMOS technology continues to be the dominant way of implementing electronics, there are many applications where thin-film circuitry can offer a significant advance, such as: direct integration of printed thin-film circuitry with other printed components such as displays and sensors; ultra-thin circuitry for flexible, stretchable and skin-mountable electronics; and implementation in the future “trillions of sensors” Internet of Everything. Our work targets novel devices and structures, including organic tunnel diodes and ultra-low voltage thin-film transistors by combination of printing and atomic layer deposition, and aims at circuits as diverse as UHF rectifiers, power management circuitry, logic elements, amplifiers and radio transmitters.
