The discovery of nanoparticles has significantly impacted many fields of science. Nanoparticles, with their unique properties due to their small size and large surface-area-to-volume ratio, have ...

Thin film electronics on flexible substrates is a rapidly evolving technology that has the potential to revolutionize various industries, including healthcare, consumer electronics, and aerospace.

Plastics make up approximately 5–12 % of global waste generation, constituting around 20–30 % of waste by weight. Alarmingly, about 60 % of plastics end up as plastic waste (PW) in the environment. 2 ...

It may contain inaccuracies due to the limitations of machine translation. From left: Professor Son Donghee of the Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS), ...

Thin films can be made from a variety of materials, including metals (e.g., gold, silver), oxides (e.g., silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide), and semiconductors (e.g ...

Thin films form the basis of many industries today, including semiconductors, electric vehicles, smart optical coatings, sophisticated medical equipment, and protective layers on high-temperature ...

Thermoplastic films have been used in flexible medical product applications since the 1960s, when plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) blood storage bags replaced glass bottles. 1 In the 1970s, PVC ...

In previous studies of thin film wrinkling on soft substrates, the mechanics models usually assume plane-strain deformation, which was found to disagree with experimental observations for narrow thin ...

Semiconductor devices are becoming thinner and more complex, making thin deposited films even harder to measure and control. With 3nm node devices in production and 2nm nodes ramping toward ...
